Autographs Carlisle Harland Margaret Pirrie Signatures Signed Viscountess Wolff Roydon
EDITORS COMMENTS
This elegant Edwardian album, measuring 16 inches by 12 inches and 9 inches by 11 inches, is a fascinating time capsule of history, bearing the autographs of two prominent figures connected to Harland and Wolff, the renowned Belfast-based shipbuilding company. The album's most notable signatures belong to Lord Pirrie, the illustrious Chairman of Harland and Wolff, and Margaret Carlisle, later Viscountess Pirrie. Lord Pirrie, born in 1847, was a visionary industrialist who oversaw the construction of some of the most impressive ocean liners of his time, including the RMS Titanic and RMS Olympic. His leadership and innovations revolutionized the shipping industry. Margaret Carlisle, born in 1862, was the wife of Lord Pirrie. She was a prominent figure in her own right, known for her philanthropic endeavors and her role as a patron of the arts. The couple's signatures are accompanied by those of other notable individuals, including Briggins, Park, and Roydon. The album's pages are adorned with beautiful floral designs, adding a touch of elegance and refinement to the historical document. The album provides a glimpse into the past, offering a tangible connection to the people and events that shaped the early 20th century. It is a testament to the enduring allure of autographs as historical artifacts and a reminder of the rich history of Harland and Wolff and the influential figures associated with it.
