Giacomo PUCCINI (1858-1924). L.A.S. Giacomo , Boscolungo Pistoiese August 15, 1908, to Sybil Seligman in St. Moritz; 1 page small in-4, address on verso; in Italian.

He thinks his friend hasn't had good weather. Why isn't she writing? It's true that he's been silent out of laziness; he's had days of great sadness; the mountains don't do him any good: è vero che anchio sono stato pigromento silenzioso. Ma ho avuto dei giorni di tristezza grande - ora sto meglio - a me la montagna non fa bene ... He adds a few words on the reverse, learning that Tosti is in Italy...
