Autograph letter dated and signed by Jean Cocteau, 12 lines in blue ink, to his friend Georges Bachelard. Fold marks inherent to mailing, envelope included. Jean Cocteau is fully absorbed in decorating the Saint-Pierre chapel of Villefranche sur mer which he adorns out of friendship for the village fishermen to whom it belongs. He nevertheless wishes to make himself available for his friend "Viendrez-vous sur notre côte ? Mon adresse est villa Santo Sospir St Jean Cap Ferrat." ("Will you come to our coast? My address is villa Santo Sospir St Jean Cap Ferrat.")
