A beige 7 x 4½ page from an autograph album signed with a fountain pen by Stewart Granger, the English film actor mainly associated with heroic and romantic leading roles. He was a popular leading man from the 1940s to the early 1960s, rising to fame through his appearances in Gainsborough melodramas such as The Man in Grey (1943), Fanny by Gaslight (1944) and Waterloo Road (1945). At the end of 1945 he was voted the second most popular British film star, and The Times reported that "this six-foot ex-soldier from the Black Watch is England's Number One pin up boy. Only Bing Crosby can match him for popularity." He signed with MGM, moved to America and had a string of successes including King Solomon's Mines (1950), The Prisoner of Zenda (1952), Salome (1953) and Bhowani Junction (1956). In the 1960s he returned to Europe and his career wound down. Three times married, two of his wives were the actresses Elspeth March and Jean Simmons.
