Historical Irish Political and Literary Autograph Collection –
1813–1873 A leather-bound book containing a vast collection of
signatures from famous and lesser-known figures connected to Sir
Charles Gavan Duffy (1816–1903), Irish nationalist, journalist, and
later Premier of Victoria, Australia. Highlights include Daniel
O’Connell on a 1d Mulready front, as well as John Newman, John
Ruskin (1819–1900), Thomas Davis (1814–1845), Victor Hugo
(1802–1885), Charles Stewart Parnell (1846–1891), Thomas Moore
(1779–1852), and William Smith O’Brien (1803–1864). An extremely
rare and historically important assembly, bridging Irish
nationalism, literature, and 19th-century international
intellectual and political networks. Sir Charles Gavan Duffy
(1816–1903) was an Irish nationalist, journalist, and later
Australian statesman. Born in Monaghan, he co-founded The Nation
newspaper in 1842, becoming a leading voice of the Young Ireland
movement, which sought Irish self-government and land reform.
Elected MP for New Ross in 1852, he championed tenant rights but
emigrated to Australia in 1855 after political frustration. There,
he entered Victorian politics, serving as Premier of Victoria
(1871–72) and was later knighted. Duffy’s life linked Irish
nationalism with Australian reform, and his writings remain
influential in both Irish and colonial political history. More
