Exactly. Pretty much establishes the parties had some sort of contractual relationship. Begs the question as to whether there was a written consignment contract for these items and if so, why the jersey was not included, unless it was to be the subject of a separate or subsequent agreement, perhaps pending authentication or other conditions.

Just a guess that Lader is Kranepool's "business partner" in the sense of being an agent selling his memorabilia, not in the more general sense of the word. Just a guess.
