About this work

This is a black-and-white printed page covered in handwritten signatures. The names are crammed into three columns, each in different sizes and styles. Some are bold and clear, others are faint or sloppy. A few words like "The Royal Library" and "The United Service Club" are written at the top, marking sections. The mix of handwriting suggests many people signed it, possibly for an event or cause. The paper looks old but not damaged, just worn from time. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum next to see where this print is kept.
