Dear sir,


This is South Korea and I'm an editor at WoongJin Publishing Co. in 
Seoul. Very glad to contact you.

I am preparing for "Adventures in Science for Children" series. It consists of 
20 books and includes such titles as 'The Solar System', 'The Universe and The 
Galaxy', 'Deserts', 'Rain Forests' and so on. I especially take part in the 
book titled "Comets and Meteors".

The series will be completed in next February. We are now in preparation of 
pictures to be included. Design and pressing work will be followed in November. 
It will be published only in South Korea and we do not have any schedule to 
publish abroad. The print run will be about 10,000.

I send you a list of photographs I am searching. If you have ANY of the 
pictures, please let me know. You can fax or e-mail me. It wouldn't be better 
if you can directly send me transparencies or prints. In case that you don't 
have those pictures but know where I can find them, please inform me of 
detailed information to contact them. And also, tell me your price policy.

Thank you.

Looking forward to your reply,


Woojung Joo
