An amazing piece dating over three centuries of age, this signed handwritten two-page document was by Cardinal Jules Marazin. Dated, "Paris, Aprill 11, 1653" at top, it is written in French, with complete translated copy (shown), it bears annotations in French in unknown hand, and shows light toning. Gorgeous, flowing script with the content relating to a previous exchange between the two. It's signed on the back page on bottom and displays visible wear from being almost 350+ years old, with some paper loss to the left margin of page one (repaired) and the right margin is rough.
