Letter from Vincent van Gogh to Theo van Gogh
Paris, 2 February 1876

Dear Theo,

Will you do me a great favour? You know that edition of Andersen's Stories of the Moon, translated by Dr. ten Kate, which costs fifteen cents. Could you send me a copy when you have an opportunity?

The box for The Hague in which I shall enclose the parcels I mentioned will not leave till tomorrow. The one for Father will not reach Etten in time, but send it as soon as you can.

À Dieu, kind regards to our friends, always

Your loving brother, Vincent


At this time, Vincent was 22 year old
