Inscribed on the verso:

Dear Mr. Woods, Thank you very much indeed for your letter, your good wishes and your kindness. The painting you bought is not only finished, but already delivered to a forwarding agency specialized in shipments of paintings to foreign countries, and will be shipped soon. The main delay is due to getting an export license, but I hope you will have your painting within a few days. The adress of Juan Martin is Cerrada de Hamburgo N°9. With my best personal regards and wishes for the Holydays. Remedios Varo
