Here is the front of the menu from the 1902 dinner, signed by some of the attendees.

We still have the menu's from the first 3 menus in our family. I am not sure my Great Grandfather ( Brigadier-General Herbert Kendall Jackson ) attended any after this. Here are copies from the original relief signed. Plus the original invite which is fun. I also have the 1902 one signed and the 1903, where it looks like they didnt bother autographing
I would be interested to know if he did attend any others after this and especially see any photos of the early ones - even if they are poor quality
Many thanks

They are excellent artefacts, Symes.

I have taken the liberty of inserting the images in the post so that they are easier to see.

Best wishes
