COLETTE, Sidonie-Gabrielle (1873?1954). Autograph Letter Signed (?Colette?). 2 pp. (recto and verso), 133 x 203 mm, text in French on blue paper, in which Colette writes to an unidentified neighbor, presumably written by Colette later in life due to the subject matter [English translation]: ?My dear neighbors, it is very kind of you not to forget a neighbor who can hardly get around anymore (I have stayed in ten days without going downstairs!) It is not a very festive way of celebrating the end of the year! My morale is holding up, fortunately. Come up one day to shake hands with me? Thank for the fresh little pot of flowers so very springlike. Maurice and I send our best wishes and friendship.? Signed ?Colette\. Old mailing fold."
