This is one of hundreds of letters Osho wrote to Ma Anandmayee, then known as Madan Kunwar Parekh. It was written on 18th July 1961. The letterhead has a simple "रजनीश" (Rajneesh) in the top left area, in a heavy but florid font, and "115, Napier Town, Jabalpur (M.P.) in the top right, in a lighter but still somewhat florid font.
Osho's salutation in this letter has undergone a shift to "प्यारी मां", Pyari Maan, replacing the normal "प्रिय मां", Priya Maan, both meaning Dear Mom, Beloved Mother. It has a couple of the hand-written marks that have been observed in other letters: a blue number (8) in a circle in the top right corner and a pale blue figure of unknown significance in the top left area.
This letter has been published, in Bhavna Ke Bhojpatron Par Osho (भावना के भोजपत्रों पर ओशो) on p 40 (2002 Diamond edition). We are awaiting a transcription and translation.
