Rainey - 2

Unfortunately, I will not be going to Jerusalem this year because of the opening of our new Museum, which is planned for November 12. Getting the building done and now overseeing the installation has kept me tied here for two years and so I have not been in Jerusalem since the summer of 1974. I should be there just about a year from now and will then get all the Bamboula material off to you.

Wish I could get to see your museum; haven't done so in too many years, but keep hearing good things.

All the best.
