Karte. Condition: Gut. Blankokärtchen von Herbert Draper Beerbohm Tree mit schwarzer Tinte signiert, umseitig Klebspuren von Albummontage. /// Autogramm Autograph signiert signed signee /// Sir Herbert Draper Beerbohm Tree (* 17. Dezember 1853 in London; ? 2. Juli 1917 ebenda) war ein englischer Theaterleiter sowie Bühnen- und F…ilmschauspieler. Er galt zu Lebzeiten als eine der bedeutendsten Persönlichkeiten des britischen Theaters und rief unter anderem die Royal Academy of Dramatic Art ins Leben. Der Sohn eines Getreidehändlers begann seine Berufslaufbahn als Angestellter im Stadtbüro seines Vaters. Nebenbei widmete er sich als Amateur der Theaterschauspielkunst. Seinen Profieinstand gab er 1878.[1] Im Jahr darauf konnte man ihn in der Rolle des Prinzen Maleotti an der Seite von Genevieve Ward in Herman Merivales Stück Forget-Me-Not sehen. 1884 war Tree der erste Schauspieler, der den Revd. Robert Spalding in einer Aufführung von Charles Henry Hawtreys The Private Secretary verkörperte. Anfang 1887 wurde er zum Manager des Comedy Theatre in Londons Panton Street berufen. Dort reüssierte er als Schauspieler vor allem in der Komödie The Red Lamp. Anschließend berief man ihn auch ins Management des bekannten Haymarket Theatre, einer klassischen West-End-Bühne. Dort war er in der Folgezeit an der Produktion u. a. folgender Bühnenstücke beteiligt: Die lustigen Weiber von Windsor (1889), The Dancing Girl (1891), wo er den Duke of Guisebury verkörperte, Hamlet (1892), Eine Frau ohne Bedeutung (1893) und vor allem Trilby (1895) mit Tree in der Rolle des Svengali, den er zukünftig noch viele Male verkörpern sollte. Seine erfolgreiche Tätigkeit am Haymarket Theatre ermöglichte ihm Ende April 1897 die Eröffnung des Her Majesty?s Theatre. Das Premierenstück hieß The Seats of the Mighty aus der Feder von Gilbert Parker. Zwischen 1888 und 1914 stellte Tree eine Fülle von prächtig ausgestatteten Shakespeare-Inszenierungen auf die Beine, sein Richard II. wurde von der zeitgenössischen Kritik gerühmt und mit Elogen bedacht. Tätigkeiten im 20. Jahrhundert 1904 gründete er die heute weltberühmte RADA (Royal Academy of Dramatic Art). 1909 wurde er als Knight Bachelor in den Adelsstand erhoben. Tree war berühmt wegen seiner spontanen Improvisationen. Er war der erste Professor Henry Higgins in der Uraufführung von George Bernard Shaws Pygmalion (1914). Als er von Shaw, der auf textgetreuem Spiel bestand, wegen seiner ständigen Improvisationen am Schluss von Pygmalion zur Rede gestellt wurde, antwortete Tree: ?Mein Ende bringt Geld, Sie sollten glücklich sein.? Shaw entgegnete: ?Ihre Schlüsse sind verdammenswert; Sie sollten erschossen werden!? Herbert Beerbohm Tree spielte in zahlreichen frühen Stummfilmen (hauptsächlich Shakespeare-Verfilmungen) mit, so z. B. in King John (1899), in der ersten Version von The Tempest (1904) und in der berühmten Macbeth-Fassung von 1916. Beerbohm Tree war der Halbbruder des Autors, Kritikers, Zeichners und Satirikers Max Beerbohm. Er war verheiratet mit der Schauspielerin Maud Holt (1863-1937),[1] aus dieser Ehe stammen drei Kinder. Er war Vater der Schauspielerinnen Viola und Iris Tree, Großvater des Schauspielers David Tree und Urgroßvater des Musikers Alan Parsons.[2] Ferner war Tree Vater von sieben unehelichen Kindern, darunter so berühmte wie der spätere Regisseur Carol Reed. Der Schauspieler Oliver Reed war ein Enkel von Tree. /// Standort Wimregal GAD-10.030 Sprache: Englisch Gewicht in Gramm: 10.

2pp, 12mo; and 1p, 8vo. On a bifolium, with the 8vo page written lengthwise across the central pages. In good condition, lightly aged and worn. Folded twice. Signed 'Percy Anderson.' According to a pencil note Broadhurst was Beerbohm Tree's 'press agent'. He has received Broadhurst's letter late the same night, and begins by inf…orming him that he cannot go to Covent Garden the following day as he will be with a sitter. He continues: 'As I implied to you in my last letter it seems almost impossible for me to give you details of the costumes to be worn in "Joan of Arc." | Period Charles XII of France ( he reigned from 1403 to 1461.) The dresses are of necessity tremendously fantastic & in designing them I have endeavoured to make them historically correct. Therefore what else can I say about them?' Were the dresses 'fanciful' it would be easy for Anderson to describe them, but 'as it is they must be rather on conventional lines'. He concludes: 'I hate to appear discourteous & if I cld. be of any use to you or to Mr. Eyles I wld. but I think you will readily understand the difficulty'.

From the Macqueen-Pope papers. (See MP's entry in the Oxford DNB.) Nash made around 70 films between 1912 and 1927, and was a key figure in the creation of Elstree Studios. His career as a film maker was effectively ended following the screening of his 1921 film 'How Kitchener was betrayed'. See Bernard Ince, ' "For the Love of…the Art": The Life and Work of Percy Nash, Film Producer and Director of the Silent Era', 'Film History', September 2007. Both items in good condition, lightly aged, each with light rust staining at one corner from paper clip. LETTER: 1p, 4to. Signed 'Percy Nash'. He begins by stating that he has enjoyed 'immensely' MP's 'articles re the Theatre World', as well as his book 'Carriages at Eleven'. He continues: 'I got quite a thrill when I read that you appreciated the dance in front of the Act drop in the "merry wives" production at His Majestys. I suggested the idea during rehearsals but Tree didn't catch on to it at the time, but when the Curtain was lowered and raised a dozen times at the end, he screamed "Do what you wanted to do". Naturally a thing like that required rehearsing, but I risked it and luckily, it came off all right.' Although 'past the age for personal publicity to attract me', he is enclosing 'a list of my various adventures in the World of Entertainment'. He will be happy to allow MP to consult his 'good amount of data such as Programmes, Private letters from many Stars of the bygone Firmament etc.' TWO: Signed Typed CV: 2pp: the first a full single-spaced A4 page, the second (last five lines of typed text and autograph name and address) on cut-down top part of A4 page, now 1p, landscape 8vo. Signed on p.2: 'Percy Nash / 2 Bristol Court West / Marine Parade. / Brighton. / Sussex'. The list is headed 'PERCY NASH. born December 5th 1868.' Begins: 'Began thetrical [sic] career as assistant at Theatre Royal Bournemouth in 1889. Whilst there Toured the West Country with John L. Toole, The Gilbert and Sullivan Operas, German Reeds, Georg[e] Grossmith (on leaving the Savoy Theatre). Paderewski (First Tour), Sims Reeves and other famous Concert artistes.' Contains the following: 'Became a pioneer in the British Film World, organised and Directed the first pictures for the original London Film Company. Built the first Film Studios at Elstree. Directed Pictures in Rome for the CINES and TIBER Film Companies and the UNIVERSAL Film Co of America'. / First President of the British Association of Film Directors / Film Producer for the Federation of British Industries / Production Manager of the British Lion Film Corporation'.
