Good. - Three autographs penned on paper mounted on both sides of stiffer 4-1/2 inch high by 4 inch wide stock clipped from an autograph album. That of Admiral Ashley Cooper Key, dated "Oct. 24, '81" is penned on a slip of paper mounted at the top of the recto. Henry Herbert, 4th Earl of…Carnarvon has signed himself "Carnarvon" on a smaller slip of paper mounted below the admiral's signature with his crest embossed in blind mounted above. Penned on a larger piece of pink paper mounted to the verso is the autograph of Ellen Terry, signed "Ellen Terry / Liverpool - September". The edges are rough and the sheet bearing Ellen Terry's autograph is quite soiled, although all three autographs are quite bold & clear. Good. Royal Navy Admiral Sir Astley Cooper Key (1821-1888) saw action at the Battle of Vuelta de Obligado during the Anglo-French blockade of the Rio de la Plata. He took part in the Battle of Bomarsund and the Bombardment of Sveaborg during the Crimean War. He fought in the Battle of Canton during the second Opium War and commanded the Baltic Fleet which kept Russia from entering Constantinople during the Russo-Turkish War. As First Naval Lord he sanctioned the building of six Admiral-class battleships. The British politician Henry Howard Molyneux Herbert, 4th Earl of Carnarvon (1831-1890) was a leading member of the Conservative Party and twice served as Secretary of State for the Colonies. He also served as Lord Lieutenant of Ireland. The well-known English actress if the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Dame Alice Ellen Terry (1847-1928) was born to a family of actors and performed in Shakespearean roles as a child. She married the middle-aged aritist George Frederic Watts when she was only 16 but the marriage lasted less than a year. She went on to have a relationship with the architect Edward William Godwin, leaving the stage for 6 years before she resumed acting in 1874, gaining immediate acclaim. She joined Henry Irving's company as his leading lady in 1878 and was considered Britain's leading Shakespearean actress. George Bernard Shaw convinced her to take over management of London's Imperial Theatre where she opened a new play by Henrick Ibsen. The play was a failure and she returned to touring to much acclaim.
