Signed Momento of Battle of Mount Street Bridge 1916

"A print of the Proclamation with a dedication from and signed by Séamus Grace, a member of C company who survived the Battle of Mount Street Bridge even though he was in the house on Northumberland Rd which was taken by the Sherwood Foresters. Séamus Grace gave this print to my husband's grandfather (in 1958) who was born on the day of the Easter Rising in 1916 and consequently always had a great interest in the Rising. It was passed on to my husband as he studied history at UCD. Our daughter is called Grace. "
