Mr Bienaimé with all my friends, his wife Piaf . Still very young, 21 years old, Piaf made two spelling mistakes in the word "friendship" (amitié).

Edith Piaf (1915 - 1963) is a monument of French culture, a legendary singer. After the war, she became internationally famous in Europe, South America and the United States.

In 1948, she met the great love of her life, boxer Marcel Cerdan, who became world boxing champion and, shortly after, died in a plane crash. This great love story, the subject of media coverage, played a big part in her myth.

Among Piaf's greatest hits are "La vie en rose" (1946), "Milord" (1959) or "Non, je ne regrette rien" (1960). She sang "Hymne à l'amour" (1949) and "Mon Dieu" (1960, composed by Charles Dumont) in memory of Marcel.

When she signed this photograph, Edith Piaf had just signed her first contract with Polydor for the album "Les mômes de la cloche", which was a huge success. It is probably one of the artist's first autographs, an exceptional piece from the beginning of her career.
