In part [translated]: “The meeting, my dear colleague, will take place on Saturday, at 2 pm, because time presses. Here is the list. Add or delete from it and send it back to me so that I may send out invitations right away.” In fine condition, with intersecting folds, a bit of trivial soiling, and a mild shade of toning.
