Re: Unknown Actres Signature Early 1900s

Hi! This is an interesting collection of signatures you have. Unfortunately I was only able to confidently identify one which was your second photo. The autograph is that of Henry E. Dixey an American actor popular in the 1900s, he even has a wiki page
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_E._Dixey

The autograph is very similar to another one he signed which you can see here https://www.historyforsale.com/henry-e-dixey-autograph-quotations-doubl…

I hope you are able to get the rest identified!

The "English Actor" signature looks to be William Harcourt, but searching for an English actor with that name nothing substantial comes up. Hope that's of some help.

Re: Unknown Actres Signature Early 1900s

The signature from the "Stratford Chicago" appears to be the well know English actor Frederick Kerr (October 11, 1858 - May 3, 1933). He was well known for stage and film both in America and England. Here's a Wikipedia page on him: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frederick_Kerr#:~:text=Frederick%20Kerr%20
