With an A.L.S., Sven Hedin, to the verso, Stockholm, 30th May 1950, to Kenneth E. Crouch. Hedin informs his correspondent that all of the stamps from his expeditions to Asia have been handed to his friend Colonel Hans Lagerloef and further provides the address of Erni Kehr in New York who 'is entirely familiar with my deals with Col. Lagerloef', further remarking 'If you write to Erni Kehr the matter may easily be arranged according to your wish'. One very slight, minor corner crease, otherwise VG

 

Hans Lagerloef (1880-1952) Swedish philatelist who amassed one of the world's largest stamp collections. Hedin collaborated with Lagerloef to produce a set of postage stamps relating to the Sino-Swedish Expedition of 1927-35 which were intended to finance the expedition and its report.
