ALS in French, signed “Ale. Dumas,” one page on two adjoining sheets, 4.25 x 5.25, monogrammed personal letterhead, no date. Letter to a gentleman, in part (translated): "If you signed your cards the same as you sign your letters, that is to say, with the name of Monau, I would not have mistaken you as a Monau Grimaldi, the old French Director of the Vicariate in Spain, who came here to establish bull fights, and this has tormented me so much that he became my bogey-man, and I would not have to regret, dear Sir, having rendered to you an impolite approach. I offer to you very proudly my apology and say to you, Sir, that I shall remain at your disposal for the first drink that you may like to share with me.” In fine condition. Pre-certified PSA/DNA.
