February 8, 1940 
Gentlemen: 
Due to the war and embargo by the European 
countries on Japenese Lilies Giganteum 8c Brabu, our ship¬ 
per, Mr Seitaro Arai of Yokohama, Japan, prepared a ship¬ 
ment for Europe and while in transit converted it to 
America with the hopes that the war would be over soon and 
these bulbs could be shipped to Europe, but prospects at 
present do not look favorable so our Mr. Arai advised us 
to dispose of the bulbs to our regular lily customers at 
a special price. 
The quantity is not large. If one-half of our 
customers would all purchase no more than 50 bulbs each, 
v/e would not have enough to supply them. 
We are herewith giving you special prices in 
case lots. These prices include duty and storage charges. 
A few oases of Lilies planted during the months of February, 
March would come in very handy, much before the outdoor 
flowers or Gladiolus come in bloom. 
We appreciate your co-operation and we hope you 
realize that the reason for this offer is to distribute 
the Lilies in general and not confine any quantity to any 
one place, giving all our lily customers the opportunity 
at these special prices. 
Yours very truly, 
AMERICAN BULB COMPANY
