No Binding. Zustand: Fine. Oberkampf [Christophe-Philippe] Autograph letter, signed, addressed to Louis Feray in Paris (1772-1836), husband of Marie-Julie Oberkampf and a director of the factory, relating to the construction details of his cotton mill at Essonne to produce the cloth needed for roller-printing his decorative fabrics at Jouy, near Versailles, about 35 km away, the first French cotton mill.
