Dear Mr. Tony B.
Please allow me contacting you informal way by using a blog comment, as I couldn't find your contact info. I am a university faculty member at Tokai University in Japan teaching maritime archaeology. I am planning to publish a book through University Press of Florida regarding archaeological study on East Asia shipbuilding. I would like to use one of illustrations on Chinese Junks and Other Native craft. Therefore, I wonder if I can get a permission from you.

Dear Tony,
My family have been sorting through my aunts house after she recently died and have found 2 watercolours by Ivon A Donnelly. Both are water craft and in very good condition. One is dated 1938. There are also a number of assorted photos of Chinese rivers, buildings etc. We do not know how or why our aunt came to have these. If you would be interested in acquiring them please let us know how to contact you directly. We are in Tonbridge in the U.K.
Regards
S Rowland
Rowland Family , I can be reached at apbanham@gmail.com and would be very interested in acquiring the paintings ( and photos if you dont want them ). Can you send me pics of the paintings and dimensions ??
