Dear Mr•Corner, 
X thank you very much for the beautiful series 
of photographs I received yesterday. Some are a bit pale-printed 
but the negatives are surely all right* As I informed yop in 
1935# in sending you a reprint of my sketches of Malaysian vege¬ 
tation I intend to write a more elaborate study on the same sub¬ 
ject in English in the future for which I am making and collec¬ 
ting drawings and photographs; those specially wanted are picture, 
views of rare and local plant communities (such as your fine photograph 
of the grass Chrysopogon collinus, which has never been reported 
from our country)• 1 have bought a fiolleiflex shortly and I am 
very much enjoying this apparatus. I am sending you itf exchange 
5 prints of mine all twice enlarged. Printing is done here excel¬ 
lently by a (Jhinese printing shop; enlargements 12 by 12 cost , 
only 10 cent 3 dutch currency e if you use glass negatives (plates) 
it is rather dangerous to send them by post as l know by experien 
-ce but films might be senflo The address Is BEN $ HENG„ Photo¬ 
grapher, Tjikeumeuh, buitenzorg* In the mountains I sometimes 
develop my films but here it takes too much time at too high a 
temperature* In Holland ^ made all myself formerly* 
With many thanks and kind greetings 
Suncerely yours
