Churchill writes to his friend Max, in full: “I was so grieved to hear that you are still suffering from the effects of your illness and the anti-biotics you had to take. I do trust that La Capponcina will re-establish you rapidly and completely. I am much looking forward to seeing you when I come down to the Hotel de Paris on Monday the 21st.” A central horizontal and vertical fold, a small staple mark to the top left corner, and two punch holes to the left edge, otherwise fine condition.
