SAINT-EXUPERY ANTOINE ...

SAINT-EXUPERY ANTOINE DE: (1900-1944) French writer, poet, aristocrat, journalist and pioneering aviator, remembered for his novella The Little Prince (1943). An original bold pencil drawing by Saint-Exupery, unsigned, one page, 4to, n.p., n.d. To the central upper half of the plain sheet of stationery Saint-Exupery has drawn two geometric diagrams, possibly related to aviation, adding a line of text in French immediately beneath in which he appears to indicate that a collision is greater under certain circumstances. A few minor, light stains to the edges and two pinholes to the upper left corner, not affecting the drawings or text. About VG
