Handwritten letter by Mike Ralli to Cavafy, on a four-page leaflet, with notes on all sides. There are references to the riots in Alexandria, which appear to have caused many inhabitants to move. There is a description of a visit to the Royal Garden, while there is also commentary on people and impressions from his contact with Greece. Cancellations and emendations. (Athens)
