Frédérick Lemaître - with original letter from Frédérick Lemaître inserted loosely
Paris: Librairie Felix Alcan, 1926. First printing. Paperback. First edition, 1926, wraps, some wear, still about very good, with letter on pink paper (some wear at corners) that reads as follows: 'Chère petite amie, je reçois votre lettre à l’instant! et ne peux m’empêcher de vous exprimer ma surprise. Je vous ai envoyé des fauteuils de premier rang et on des parterre pour ainsi (...) venir de suite à ma loge (...) m’instruire du fait. À une autre fois, je vous embrasse, Frédéric.' -- apparently some confusion about first row seats promised to his friend. This book is from the collection of Silvain's daughter, Jeanne, who lived in Western PA, but no ownership signature from her. Frédérick Lemaître was one of the best known French actors of the 19th century. Very Good. Item #H2757
