Jean-Paul SARTRE (1905-1980). L.A.S., s.d., 15 minuit [November 1953], to Pierre Brasseur; 1 page and a quarter in-8. [The day after the premiere of Kean, a play by Alexandre Dumas adapted by Sartre, at the Théâtre Sarah-Bernhardt, in which Pierre Brasseur played the title role]. Sartre wanted to visit Brasseur at the theater to thank him for his gift of a wallet: "You see, I needed it. It's been a long time since the Beaver [Simone de Beauvoir] accused me of having my pennies in all my pockets and sowing them everywhere, and then your little note gave me great pleasure: I'd like you to have as much pleasure performing this play as I have knowing it's being performed by you. I've read all the newspapers, and they all agree on you, and I want you to know how pleased I am by your triumph"...
