In French. Letter to the director of the Typographic Society of Neuchatel, where he had sent a manuscript. Mirabeau writes regarding local booksellers who are reluctant to commit to a deal for a large quantity of a book they do not know. - In fine condition, with central vertical and horizontal folds. It is likely that Mirabeau is referring to his obscene book Errotika Biblion, which was first published in Neuchatel in 1783.
