- 6 pages in-8°, handwritten manuscript signed with ink by Pierre Brasseur:
“Picabia? – Don’t know him anymore. Mister Picabia, yes! – can I answer him – for such articles can only be from this man; to be uniform or to be trapped in form – you so stupidly surrender with the introduction of the postcard – “souvenir of his creation... Dada?” [Auction catalogue, 2003]
