AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful notebook bound in full Russian leather containing five handwritten sheets in German by different people at the end of the Second Empire (the rest of the pages are blank).
Enhanced with nine handwritten signatures tucked between the pages, two newspapers from the era, as well as a 'passport abroad valid for one year' signed by the Prefect of the Seine inférieure in 1871 to allow a certain Albert Hesse to pass into England (with an imperial stamp).

Among the handwritten letters, you find:
A letter from the Chamber of Deputies signed by the Marquis of Roys and dated 1885.
A letter from the Ministry of War signed by General Joseph de Miribel (1831-1893)
A letter from General Bichat dated 1884: [Sir, the station master of Bercy informed me that the basket you sent me has arrived at Bercy station...]
An undated note by Frédéric Febvre (1833-1916) from the Comédie française.
A telegram from 1892 signed by Thierry d'Alsace de Hénin-Liétard (Count of Alsace 1853-1934) addressed to his tailor.
- A letter written over two pages by Louis H... addressed to his father: [My dear Father, I would still like to wait eight days and explain to you in person what I have to communicate, but your letter yesterday shows me that perhaps we do not understand each other very well and compels me to respond directly. What wish did I express in my previous letter? The desire to be free during my first year of law school. ... Yes, I want to be free, but to enjoy my freedom and truly make the most of it...]

Bound in full grain brown leather from Russia, with a gold clasp (without key), cold stamped frame surrounding the panels, smooth and silent back, all edges gilded.
Approximately 150 blank pages.

In good condition. Solid binding, sun-damaged spine, and sunburn marks on the cover. Leather slightly rubbed. Interior fresh and clean.

Notebook - Full leather journal with handwritten nine-letter words.
volume in- 8 (21.5 x 14cm); approximately 150 pages
