Victor Hugo - Victor Hugo - Autographed and signed letter, 1850. Autograph letter, signed and dated by Victor Hugo, 120x180 mm. It bears a text that states: ”I did well, Sir, to use without authorization, like a man in a hurry, this means to send my writing well to its destination, from hand to hand. Thank you (a rare thing) for being grateful to me. Victor Hugo, August 28.” This appears to be a brief cover note for a delivery of a text or manuscript, probably entrusted to someone without going through official channels, with a reflection on the recipient's haste and gratitude.
