CREVEL RENE: (1900-1935) French writer associated with the Surrealist movement. Rare A.L.S., with his initials R.C., one page, 4to, Davos-Platz (Graubunden, Switzerland), n.d. (1934), to Michel Simon, in French. Crevel states that he is still undergoing his cure, remarking 'Qouiqu'il y ait mieux a faire que de compter ses crachats, quand le monde est ce qu'il est' (Translation: 'Although there's better things to do than count your spit, when the world is what it is'), adding that he will have his examination on Monday, but there were still signs of bacteria four days ago, 'Tres peu. Mais trop pour me facher une vie dont un mois sera encore consacre a ce sale pays' (Translation: 'Very little. But too much to hurt me in a life of which a month will still be devoted to this filthy country') and concluding by asking 'Pourquoi Lausanne? Faites-vous la tuberculine?' (Translation: 'Why Lausanne? Do you do tuberculin?'). Accompanied by the original envelope hand addressed by Crevel. Autograph letters signed by Crevel are rare as a result of his suicide at the young age of 34. Some very light, extremely minimal age wear, VG Rene Crevel was diagnosed with tuberculosis in 1924 which resulted in him frequently being absent from Paris in order to visit sanatoriums, particularly in Switzerland.
