Lettre de Christian
Language: French (Français) 
Our translations:  ENG
   Le 8 mars 1953

Monsieur,
Nous avons été ravis tous les deux des jolis jouets que
vous avez donnés à Papa et à Maman pour nous, et
vous en remercions beaucoup.

Mon motocycliste prend des virages formidables
route la journée, cela m'amuse énormément. Veuillez
croire, Monsieur, ainsi que Madame,

à mes sentiments respectueux,
  Christian Daniel Lesur.

Note: the author is the son of the composer Jean-Yves Daniel-Lesur.
