AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

!!! MUSEALE !!!
EXCEPTIONAL RARITY, a postcard from Fiume with motto and signature of Gabriele D'Annunzio (printed), bearing numerous AUTOGRAPHS of the most illustrious and important figures of the period, collected by someone during a piano performance by Luisa Baccara on January 19, 1920 in the Government Palace of Fiume, where D'Annunzio was used to organizing events, as testified in the book (see last 2 photos here) that collects all his letters sent to Baccara, a method he also used to communicate from one room to another with the woman, a noted pianist and faithful lover of the Vate, who lived with him at the Vittoriale degli Italiani in Gardone Riviera, becoming known as the "lady of the Vittoriale".

Among the AUTOGRAPH signatures, indeed, we find:
- that of D'Annunzio, with the addition of the nickname he gave himself, "Ariel," both because it phonetically echoes his name and because he was fascinated by the Ariel of Shakespeare, the spirit of air and wit in the comedy "The Tempest".
- The signature of Baccara (see photo 16 for comparison, taken from a noted D'Aste house).
- The signature of Alceste De Ambris, whom D'Annunzio named his Chief of Staff in the Government of the City of Fiume and who drafted the Charter of Carnaro (see Wikipedia for his history and photo 17 here for the signature comparison, also found online, sold at auction for over 400 Euro).
- The other recognized signatures belong to various personalities, including military (Arditi), namely:
- Lt. Giovanni Bonmartini
- Piero Belli (correspondent of Il Popolo d'Italia in Fiume)
- Capt. Mario Sani (later left Fiume with Ceccherini)
- Lt. Cais di Pierlas Alberto (aide-de-camp of D'Annunzio in Fiume, pianist and composer)
- Capt. Eugenio Coselschi (see Wikipedia)
- Capt. Vadalà
- Capt. Gino Biasini
- Vittorio Margonari
- Corrado Zoli (Undersecretary of Foreign Affairs in Fiume)
- Tors ti Angelo (S.ten aviator).

It is easy to understand how this document is of extraordinary historical and collecting value, in addition to being quite UNIQUE, even in its kind, there being no others known with all these signatures together!!! Perfectly preserved and obviously GUARANTEED ORIGINAL!!!
Shipping: Express Courier, national and international.
