Ditto.....got a LE print of HMS Kelly signed by five survivors and two copies of the very rare HMS Hood prints by Robert Taylor and signed by the suvivor Ted Briggs.
Ted Briggs was quite the nice fellow. My friend David led the subsea expedition on the HOOD which you might like to see. You can read the book "Hood and Bismark" for more info ..

I will post a link to follow on. http://www.hmshood.com/hoodtoday/2001expedition/index.htm





Ted Briggs, the sole living survivor from Hood, was transported to the expedition vessel to pay a final tribute to his former friends and shipmates and was allowed to physically release the memorial plaque on to Hood.
