Touching autograph letter signed by Marcel Pagnol addressed from Monte Carlo to his great friend Carlo Rim, 9 lines in blue ink, : "Petit Carlo, Où es-tu? Donne-moi ton adresse, car il faut que je t'écrive sérieusement à propos du droit d'auteur au cinéma. C'est urgent, et important pour tous. Je t'embrasse et aussi Alice, Marcel. Monte Carlo" ["Little Carlo, Where are you? Give me your address, as I need to write to you seriously about film copyright. It's urgent, and important for everyone. I embrace you and also Alice, Marcel. Monte Carlo"]
Central folds inherent to postal handling, Carlo Rim having inscribed a date in pencil, probably that of receiving the letter.
