Yours of 5th.
1. No. Thelema-Verlag. The firm is really in my own control: it was founded only to do my books.
2. Can't understand why my American agents do nothing. But they don't. So you're free.
3. I think 500 of both Part I and II [of Book 4] at first. Then 1500 or 2000 more of Pt. I. Not sure if Pt 2 was reprinted. Fancy war stopped it—Not sure.
4. I thought of a totally new title e.g. "Theory and Practice of Magick."
5. Name "The Master Therion" Fra[ter] P[erdurabo] didn't know all that's in Pt 3 [Magick in Theory and Practice].
6. The crook who bought the Chiswick Press might have answer to this in their old records.
I quite approve your alternative scheme.
But if you really know 50 people it would be better to get them to form a company as in Germany.
There is a big demand, once things could be brought back to normal.
