Let Vk denote the class of functions

which map conformally onto an image domain ƒ(U) of boundary rotation at most (see (7) for the definition and basic properties of the class ). In this note we discuss the valency of functions in Vk, and also their Maclaurin coefficients.

In (8) it was shown that functions in Vk are close-to-convex in . Here we show that Vk is a subclass of the class K(α) of close-to-convex functions of order α (10) for , and we give an upper bound for the valency of functions in Vk for K>4.
