Letter from R. L. Underwood to Michael Jaffe, in typescript, single page, dated 20 December 1988, representing the executors of Christopher Blunt's estate and advising Prof. Jaffe that the executors are prepared to contribute £20,000 towards the the amount that the Fitzwilliam needs to find to acquire the collection (i.e. the amount by which the "special price" of the collection exceeds the tax liabilities of the state), thereby reducing the maximum from £137,320 to £117,320.
