AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Exceptional autograph letter signed by Jacques Mesrine, nicknamed « l'Ennemi public n°1 », written from his cell at the Saint-Vincent-de-Paul penitentiary, located in Laval, Quebec, on August 13, 1972, in blue ink on two sheets of onion-skin parchment with lines.
In this letter addressed to Jeanne Schneider, Jacques Mesrine mentions the miserable weather, his rare outings limited to medical checkups, and expresses his impatience to see her in the visiting room while encouraging her to keep hope for her own release. The letter precedes by eight days his escape from the Saint-Vincent-de-Paul penitentiary, which will take place on August 21, 1972.

Hello my angel, how is my beautiful Nanou on this lovely Sunday in August! one cannot say it’s beautiful at the moment, all week I’ve gone out only twice! what nauseating weather. Finally we can’t do anything about it and far from us is the sun of the Costa del Sol! my buddy has received some news!
this pleased him I’ll explain it to you at the visiting room on Wednesday.
I wrote a short letter to our friend Fréda, but in such circumstances it is hard to offer any consolations.
I received your new paper, always pleasant to change! (paper… not a woman!) aside from that I made a little outing to go get my X-rays… my pains perhaps come from the nastiness I have in my body!!! Yes my angel the days pass and the years too, but we must not lose hope because you will surely regain your freedom one day and who knows maybe you’ll have a pleasant surprise after all. As I see it you don’t work much… anyway for the price you’ve paid! it’s always too much. Little kitty, in three days I’ll have the pleasure of making… (no, not love!) but conversation and I can’t wait for Wednesday. In the meantime I’m planting big kisses and small ones too… on everything that is you
see you Wednesday, darling, and be beautiful… as always
I adore you
