Letter on reverse: Picture above is of my uncle Donald D. Graham taken in his apartment at the Hotel Drake 440 Park Ave., New York. To is right is one of these mirrors which was owned by his sister Mabel Graham. At her death in 1959 these mirrors were not left to me. However, my friend, Malcolm G. Field, one of her executors arranged it so they came to me. I had admired them all my life. I believe they are late 18th century Italian./Thurston H. Smith/Jan 7th 1963
