Formal letter (about the article)

Deat Editor, 

I am writing to protest about the article "Casablanca piano sells for $2,9m in New York auction": the information given in the article is not right. A buyer and a cost of piano are another. 

On that day I was one of the auction's participants. First, the article says that Casablanca piano is from classic 1940s - however, it is from 1950s (this is a fact from history). The second false fact is about a buyer, article says that it is Bonhams, but it is another. Now I do not remember exactly how it is called. The third thing is cost of the piano. You wrote that $2.9m, but it was bought for $290 thousands. 

I hope you will correct the information of the article as soon as possible, before other people did not read it. 

I look forward to get an answer for you.

Yours faithfully, 

Roman Gorbenkov
