Signed book: The Queen Elizabeth. Later printing. London: Winchester Publications, 1947. Hardcover, 9.5 x 11.25, 148 pages. Signed in various ink on the reverse of the first free end page, half-title page, index introduction page, and last free end page by 65 celebrities, dignitaries, and crew members, between 1948 and 1949. Notable signers include: Walt Disney, Alfred Hitchcock (adding a small profile self-portrait), Greer Garson, Ella Fitzgerald, Rosalind Russell, Jascha Heifetz, Anna Neagle, Brian Aherne, Michael Wilding, Janet Gaynor, Gregory Peck, Charles Boyer, Alexander Fleming, Thomas Beecham, Kathleen Ferrier, and some of the ship’s crew. Several signers have also inscribed to Jean, some wishing her a happy birthday. In very good to fine condition, with some scattered light soiling to signed pages, some scattered light wear to covers and slightly-loose spine, and a small edge tear to the last page of the book. The original owner of this book (”Jean”) was most likely a well-to-do passenger who took multiple trips from late 1948 to the end of 1949, collecting the signatures of celebrities and crew members along the way.
