Affectueuse lettre autographe signée adressée son grand ami Carlo Rim à propos du droit d'auteur au cinéma

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. He also indicated below, still in pencil: 27 mai ass.ger. SACD à Pleyel.
Carlo Rim was a Provençal writer, author notably of "Ma belle Marseille", a caricaturist, a filmmaker: "Justin de Marseille", "L'armoire volante", "La maison Bonnadieu", and was notably the friend of Fernandel, Raimu and Marcel Pagnol but also of Max Jacob and André Salmon whom he met in Sanary.
Tutor to the aspiring baccalaureate candidate Jean Marius, future Carlo Rim, the very young graduate Marcel Pagnol preferred to teach him cup-and-ball, mocking the uselessness of the baccalaureate.
This was the beginning of an unshakeable friendship between the two artists whose literature, theater and films contributed to the fame of the land of cicadas.
