1938134463Broughty Ferry Dundee: Unidentified Photographer 1938. Very Good. Broughty Ferry Dundee Unidentified Photographer 1938. A vintage gelatin silver photograph 205 × 296 mm laid down on the original captioned mount with the players identified below the image. The mount is a little marked mainly by three small faint glass-rings one slightly encroaching on the bottom left-hand corner of the photograph; tiny mark to the surface of the photograph; overall in excellent condition. The Burnie 'Advocate' Friday 5 August 1938 has an interesting account of the first day's play: 'The Australians arrived by charabanc at the picturesque Broughton sic Ferry ground to-day wearing tartan bonnets but there was nothing festive about their early batting on a good wicket. McCabe won the toss and decided to bat. The weather was fine and cool. By virtue of his father being an Aberdonian the Yorkshireman Gibb led Scotland which drew no nationalistic bar. The team included the West Indian Hunt who is now a professional for Aberdeenshire. Chipperfield was train sick after the 12.5 hour journey from Swansea and stayed in bed to-day. Bradman is staying with friends at Perth. He is expected to stand down in the minor matches to ensure freshness for the next Test. Badcock and Walker who opened for Australia scored only seventeen in half an hour before Badcock was stumped off the first ball from Laidlaw. Walker was bowled in Hunt's first over. <p>Against creditable bowling Barnes batted crisply until caught in the slips by Laidlaw. Fingleton whom one kilted spectator described as a "we bitty on the dour side" stayed with McCabe until lunch when three wickets were down for 95 runs. After lunch Fingleton was soon out and Brown did not last long but McCabe gave the crowd of 4000 the kind of batting it had come to see. Brilliant and versatile he scored 50 in 50 minutes. At tea the Australians were all out for 213 runs'. A few days later the Hobart 'Mercury' Monday 8 August reported that the match was a draw with Australia 213 and 320 and Scotland 88 and 8 for 185. The 'two-day match which ended at Dundee yesterday would have been won easily had not the Australians in light-hearted mood refused to allow it a definite finish. Some of the Scottish newspapers are critical of the Australian tactics at Dundee. The "Scotsman" says it was with no sense of satisfaction that Scotland drew the match in such circumstances'. The full account of the match is nothing if not entertaining with snippets such as these: 'A crowd of 6000 in sultry weather after lunch was entertained first by the release on the field of a kangaroo from the Australian exhibit at the Glasgow Exhibition' and 'As an example of Scottish economy tickets for the match with India in 1932 were used as pass-out checks at lunch time'.

56465Image size 218 × 347 mm plus captions; in fine condition. Digby Jephson 'was one of the last of the lob bowlers and one of the very best. At the height of the Golden Age of cricket he kept the flame of old-fashioned lobs burning with the spectators switching between roars of laughter and applause of acknowledgement whenever he went on.
