Sir Geoffrey Holt Seymour Jackson KCMG (Mar 1915 – Oct 1987) was a British diplomat and writer. In 1971, during his tenure as British ambassador to Uruguay, he was kidnapped by the Tupamaros guerrillas and ultimately released after eight months of captivity.
PROVENANCE:
From a large collection of Autographs (c500 +) in two albums that were personally obtained by Mr Bernard Sullivan (Apr 1920 - Feb 2017), renowned Senior Toastmaster for the Society of London Toastmasters. Due to the nature of his job, whenever an opportunity arose for an autograph, Sullivan would grab whatever was to hand - a ticket, a menu, back of his notes, etc to capture his prey.
Over his long distinguished career, he worked with many people from around the world including Royalty, Heads of States, Archbishops, HM Judges, Stars of Stage and Screen , Politicians and Sportsmen, many becoming like old friends. During his 58 years as a Toastmaster, he gradually built up a large, impressive collection of autographs, which were all personally collected by him. He cherished them and proudly showed them off to friends and family.
