HENRY IRVING
Signed autograph letter (1899) on stationery of the Plaza Hotel, New York
Autograph Letter signed: "Henry Irving", 1 page, 5¾x9¼. New York, N.Y., 1899 October 31. On letterhead of the Hotel Plaza to W. Chase. In full: "Thank you most heartily for sending me so kindly copies of your magazine. Mr. Davis' article exceeds my requests. I am very truly yours". Henry Irving (1838-1905) was a famed English actor, noted for his innovative performance of Shakespearean roles. (He was the first to perform Shylock, for example, in a dignified, non-stereotyped way.) Associated with the Lyceum Theatre from 1870, he took control of the theatre (with actress Ellen Terry) in 1878 and immediately invited his lifelong friend, Dracula author Bram Stoker to join the company. Horizontal and vertical mailing folds. Creased and toned. Paper residue (previous mounting) on verso with show-through at top left corner.
