Autograph letter, one page, lightly-lined, 8.5 x 5.25, Hotel Gassion letterhead, no date. Wright responds to a letter from Paul Tissandier, penning his answer at the bottom of Tissandier’s letter. Tissandier writes, “At what hour will you go this morning to the camp? Ten o’clock is it soon enough. Will you say to the waiter if ten o’clock is well.” Underneath, Wright answers, “I understood Wilbur to say last evening that he would begin at 9 o’clock. I myself am in no hurry.” In fine condition, with intersecting folds and some mild toning. Wright and Tissandier were in the same hotel in Pau, as the brothers were demonstrating their flier and Wilbur was setting a new record for flight duration. Pre-certified PSA/DNA and RR Auction COA.
