First Edition / Orignal letter, written and signed by Albert Robida. Dated the third of August, and from Grandcamp. the letter is to a single sheet of writing paper, folded, and written to three of the sides. It includes an attractive small vignette, of him raising a glass to toast to his friend, the letters recipient. The text reads: "Grandcamp, August 3. My dear friend. You are a thousand times too kind what a supply! 10 bottles of Maruani wine, 6 elixirs, 2 crates of tea and 4 of paste enough to brighten up the rainy days, warm us up on cold days, and cheer us up on cold days. A sad end to the season, probably, for the Normandy coast, with the Asian visitor arriving in Le Havre*. It's a good thing you left Villers, which must be depopulating like Trouville with this threatening neighbour, so close by. We must be noticing it everywhere, for the last two weeks it's been cleaner, the Municipality is cleaning! I wonder if we'll be lucky enough to finish our season without any trouble. - With the prospect of finding the Seine nymphs in their broth of microbes in Argenteuil. My friend Montetand went to Saint-Malo for a small plot of land bought at the tip of Varenne, that's where there's a deal on superb land on the Rance near Dinard, a large park divided into lots - too far unfortunately! I wish you a good season in Valesaire, in the Mediterranean Barbizon. Give my respects to these ladies, and my best wishes to Dr. Laffat, Mr. Jaros, and your brother. Good handshake, of your, A. Robida". Below the vignette, is the text "My vice. Isigny Police Court: 25 francs fine for drunkenness and disorderly conduct." A lovely piece from Robida. The letter is clean and tidy, with just a little creasing, both from the original fold, and from it being folded again. 17.5cm x 22.5cm. *The Asian visitor is almost certainly a reference to the Fifth Cholera pandemic, which was rife in France between 1881 and 1896. .
