Zustand: Very good. Very good. - Octavus Roy Cohen's autograph penned in full on 1-3/8 inch high by 4-1/2 inch wide slip of paper clipped from what appears to be a contract with a signature line on the recto and text printed on the verso. Very good. The early 20th century American author Octavus Roy Cohen (1891-1959) wrote dialect comedy stories about African-Americans. His stories became popular after being published in the Saturday Evening Post. Several were adapted into short films by Al Christie. His stereotype portrayals were unflattering to African-Americans and drew criticism from W.E.B. Du Bois who referred to them as "the monstrosities he has created".

See his entry in the Oxford DNB, in which 'deep professional commitment and mental toughness' are said to be qualities whose possession he demonstrated 'heroically'. Beatty's aggressive tactics at the Battle of Jutland are often contrasted with Jellicoe's more cautious approach. After the explosion of the Indefatigable and the Queen Mary, with the loss of 1283 officers and men, he came out with the celebrated understatement, 'There seems to be something wrong with our bloody ships today'. The present item is in good condition, lightly aged, and laid down on a leaf removed from an autograph album. It is a 9.5 x 5 cm piece of paper, cut from the base of a form, with Beatty signing in red on the top line, and the following two lines written out by him in blue: 'David Beatty / Rear-Admiral / 21 June 1913.' Printed in small type at the foot: '[2726] 20002/P501 100 9/12va G & S 2032'. See image.
