Dear Mr. Bolgar:

It was a pleasure meeting with you and discussing the exciting prospect of a pictorial on the beautiful women of Budapest. Pompeo has always had the greatest of enthusiasm for the project but now after our meeting and the likelihood that it may really happen he talks about nothing else and his bags are packed.
This letter will recap some of the points covered in our conversation and outline the requests that we are making in order for this to be a smooth successful project.
Pompeo would like to make the trip to Budapest during September of this year. He will be traveling with a young lady who will assist him with the make-up and hair styling for the 15 to 20 young ladies that he hopes to photograph during his month stay. A project of this scope requires a good deal of time and logistics just finding the young ladies willing to pose and getting the word around the city that Pompeo is in town for Playboy. Once the ladies are found the actual photo session per girl is usually a day but it necessitates a stay of a month.
For interviewing ladies and as a central work space for props, wardrobe, photo equipment and Polaroid testing, Pompeo will require a large suite at a first class hotel for the entire stay in Hungary. It would be best if he stays in one hotel the entire time so he can easily be reached at any time during the trip. The make-up artist will also need a large single room at the same hotel for the time period. I may make a trip to Budapest at some time during September and if so I will also need a room for approximately one week. All rooms are to be complimentary.

Pompeo will be entering Hungary with a large suppli of photo equipment, strobe lights, cameras, film, props, make-up, etc. and we would like to make sure that there is easy entry and exit with no X-raying of film or undue hold-up at the airport.
In order to find locations and travel in and around Budapest, we would like to hire a young assistant who can translate for Pompeo, drive a car that we will rent or ideally this young man owns and who has minimum photographic skills so he can assist Pompeo on shootings. We would also like to secure the services of a location scout or production assistant who knows the city and can help secure hotel rooms, apartments, villas, restaurants, nightclubs, etc. that will be used as background for photography. It would also be ideal if the photo assistant and/or production assistant had contacts with models and young ladies that would be willing to participate in our pictorial.
In order to facilitate our moving about the city and the surrounding countryside we would like an official letter of introduction for Pompeo from the Hungarian Office of Tourism.
It is our intent to publish in the American Playboy as well as in many of the foreign Playboys, such as the German, French, Italian and Spanish editions a very positive pictorial depicting the beautiful city of Budapest as well as the lovely ladies who live in and visit the city. We will include the names of the hotels, nightclubs, restaurants and special attractions we feel our readers should know about and visit if they make a trip to Hungary.
We are most excited about this project and with your help we can make it a special and memorable pictorial for all our readers. Both Pompeo and I wish you a safe journey to Budapest and wait for encouraging news upon your return to Los Angeles.

Best,

Jeff Coben
Managing Photo Editor
