This picture together with a number of others was made by Mr. Remington for the late Francis Parkman as an illustration in his "Oregon Trail" of which we are the publishers.</p><p> We now have in process of manufacture a new and very fine edition of Mr. Parkman's historical works which is to be illustrated with a series of photogravure plates. The picture of "Fort Laramie" will appear in this new edition of the "Oregon Trail" and we write to ask if you would allow us to have a photograph made of the picture in your possession as we can get a much better result by photographing from the original than from any of the prints in our present edition.</p><p> If you are willing we should do this and will kindly inform us when it would be convenient for you to have it done we will be glad to secure a competent photographer of Pittsburgh to photograph it. Any assistance you can give us in this matter will be greatly appreciated."</p><p>Remington's Laramie illustration was included in Little Brown's 1898 "Oregon Trail" but there is no indication that it was taken from the original painting owned by Mr. Shea who owned Pittsburgh's leading department store.</p> books
