  2. "ce grand pendard [...] me fout sondard en cul"
    Antoine BLONDIN (to Roger NIMIER)

    "ce grand pendard [...] me fout sondard en cul"Unpublished handwritten letter, very dirty, addressed to his best friend Roger Nimier from Réalmont (Tarn)

    Réalmont s. d. [cachet postal 1959]|16.90 x 17.70 cm|un feuillet + une coupure de presse + une enveloppe
    Delightful, likely unpublished, handwritten letter signed by an enigmatic Marijo, a chambermaid by trade, who in a Rabelaisian tone and a long string of puns writes from a hotel in Réalmont (Tarn) to the hussar Roger Nimier at his Paris office at La N.R.F.
    20 lines on a squared sheet.

    Though the letter is unmistakably by Antoine Blondin, it is unlikely to be in his hand, and one of his companions probably lent his own to this farcical piece. The writer, disguised as Marijo, a distinctly illiterate maid, recounts her sexual exploits with "Monsieur Antouane".
