There is nothing among your papers that could have been reproduced in colour...could you advise me who to contact in order to obtain any such posters, and in particular the one of the Acerbo Cup 1933...The project is still at an embryonic stage, and during this period it requires discretion, because we don't want that any adventurer from the editorial sector burning this idea. But if the project, as I think, will go to completion, your material is beautiful, very appropriate...I have this morning met Mr. Moretti, the architect, again regarding the argument of your project. Moretti has shown high interest and asks me to suggest to you a meeting which would be very interesting for the future. You can write to him to the company 'Edizioni di Autocritica' Rome...I have received your letter dated 16 December with the first chapter of your project dedicated to the Acerbo Cup...''

All letters show a horizontal crease through center and are in near fine condition.
