Jeremy Irons signed handbill - Shakespeare on 'Strangers'

A5 handbill of the last surviving play script handwritten by William Shakespeare, in which he imagines Sir Thomas More making an impassioned plea for the humane treatment of refugees, read out by actor Jeremy Irons on the Queens Walk by London's Southbank Centre on 8 July 2016 as part of the events highlighting the current refugee crisis. One side of the sheet bears promotional information about the book 'Refugee Tales.' There are two copies of the sheet, one of which has been signed by Jeremy Irons. Peter Jewell has written a brief account of the event on the back of the envelope.
