Jean RICHEPIN (1880-1946, playwright and theater director, son of Jean Richepin) / Autograph letter signed, 1 p in-4, November 14, 1934, to Marcel Simon, the former owner of La Scala de Paris: Richepin, who runs this theater with his wife Cora, is about to go to court with the new owners of the Scala company, "they claim that the theater was bad and that it has never made good money, I would like to reply by quoting the magnificent receipts made under your direction, notably with "Louis XIV", I know that I can count on the legitimate resentment you have against these dishonest people"; he asks him for an idea for the Renaissance, "for eight days I have been back in possession, at last, of my theater".
