Write a letter to the Manager of a second-hand bookshop, enquiring if he is interested in buying them

To,

The Manager,

New and Old Bookshop,

Kalbadevi Road,

Mumbai.

Sir,

I wish to dispose of the following rare books in my possession :-

– Tagore’s ‘Gitanjali’ with the author’s signature on the title page.

– Johnson’s ‘Dictionary’ (first edition).

– Apte’s ‘Sanskrit-English Dictionary.’

These books are very valuable. The last book has been out of print for many years. Except for the obvious fact they are very old, the books are in a good condition. If you are interested in buying them at a reasonable price, I shall bring them to your shop. Expecting a prompt reply, I am,

Yours faithfully,
