Collection consists, for the most part, of letters written to Adolphe Basler by various artists and critics (André Derain, Maurice de Vlaminck, Dufy, Apollinaire, Besson, Salmon, Jacob, Carco, Fénéon and publisher Bruno Cassirer, for example). The letters comment on Basler's articles and books on artists such as Henri Rousseau, Derain, Maurice Utrillo and Basler's work on primitive art and aesthetics. Many letters comment on Coubine (Kubín), Basler's particular favorite and protégé, and the general (depressed) state of the art market. Included are 14 letters (copies) written by Basler.
