GEOFFRIN, Edmond - Lot 156
GEOFFRIN, Edmond Belgian diplomat and statesman. L.A.S. "Ed. Geoffrin" to a correspondent, on Belgian Embassy paper, dated July 29, 1932, 2 pp. in-8. Interesting reading letter on Emil Ludwig's Le Monde tel que je l'ai vu. The diplomat thanks his correspondent for sending the book, and gives a particularly lively appreciation of it: "The narrative is alert and extremely lively". and notes with finesse the author's method: "the author takes his camera out into the world to meticulously record everything of interest he encounters". He also emphasizes the precision of his observations, while making a very personal remark about typography: "It's printed in such small type that it makes my eyes terribly tired". A very attractive set, both in terms of content and official support.
