Original galley proof and manuscript pages for a memoir on Ellen Terry [manuscript], 1891-1907?

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/610575246

One page of an original galley proof for part of a reminiscence by Terry, headed "Haymarket," with a number of corrections in the text, possibly in the hand of Bram Stoker, and with printer's marks in blue pencil. Running title: "Ellen Terry five New Review." Many differences between proof and published article in New Review, vol. 4, 1891. Together with 54 manuscript miscellaneous pages for the memoir in another hand, not Terry's. Bears some similarities to Terry's The story of my life.

55 leaves ; 23 x 19 cm.
