Diedrich Ulpts 1860-1940 Dwarf Actor

[Flying10uk]

While sorting through my late grandmother's photographic collection, recently, I came across this autographed photo of someone that I had never heard of before. Looking up the name online it appears that Diedrich Ulpts was a dwarf, born in 1860, finding work as a dwarf actor and passed away in 1940. There appears to be little else on the internet about him. Being born in Victorian times with a disability such as this meant very little in terms of employment opportunities or rights but one thing a dwarf could do is go on stage where the public would pay to look at you.

I wondered if anyone here has heard of him, please, and also what sort of value this item may have should I decide to sell it at some point, please?

Many thanks for any information.
