Paper. Condition: Good. First Edition. An Original Handwritten and Signed Letter Headed paper by Actor Manager Sir Squire Bancroft and His Wife Fellow Actor Marie Effie Wilton, Lady Bancroft. Dated 1897. Sir Squire Bancroft 1841 - 1926, born Squire White Butterfield, was an English actor-manager. He changed his name to Squire Ba…ncroft Bancroft by deed poll just before his marriage. He and his wife Effie Bancroft are considered to have instigated a new form of drama known as 'drawing-room comedy' or 'cup and saucer drama', owing to the realism of their stage sets. Marie Effie Wilton, Lady Bancroft 1836-1921 was an English actress and theatre manager. She appeared onstage as Marie Wilton until after her marriage in December 1867 to Squire Bancroft, when she adopted his last name. Bancroft and her husband were important in the development of Victorian era theatre through their presentation of innovative plays at the London theatres that they managed, first the Prince of Wales's Theatre and later the Haymarket Theatre. Size is 152mm x 100mm. Good condition with light folding crease. Ref18815. Signed by Author(s).
