All edges with contemporary marbling. Modern marbled endpapers. Frontispiece title page vignette and 38 full-page illustrations by H.K. Browne. A very good copy indeed the binding square and firm. The contents with the inevitable darkening of the plate edges with some offsetting to the opposite pages are otherwise clean throughout. The original blank front endpaper has the ownership inscription of the famous English cricketer Heathfield H. Stephenson dated 1894. A curious and appealing cricketing association copy. With all first issue points within the text present. Smith part I: 6b Charles Dickens' works are among the most celebrated in the English literary canon but cricket fans might argue that his greatest achievement was inadvertently triggering the long international cricket rivalry of England and Australia.�The first ever England vs Australia tour was originally conceived as a Victorian PR stunt and sponsorship opportunity by two entrepreneurial Melbourne-based businessmen the wine merchants Felix William Spiers and Christopher Pond. Having failed to persuade Charles Dickens to conduct a lecture tour of Australia the two Englishmen turned their attention to cricket. The sport's popularity was growing in Australia so Spiers and Pond invited a team of leading English cricketers to tour the country. Twelve players signed up for the tour. Named "The Eleven of All England" or "H. H. Stephenson's XI" after the English Captain Heathfield Harman Stephenson they each received £150 first class passage aboard SS Great Britain costing 70 guineas plus all expenses.�The inaugural English tour of Australia was a great success promoting the development of Australian cricket and inspiring later English teams to visit Australia.

1933107014Adelaide: Rigby Ltd 1933. First Edition. Paperback. Very Good. Adelaide Rigby Ltd. 1933. Small oblong folio 40 pages including the covers with illustrations on 24 pages 16 full-page and the front cover. Two-colour pictorial card covers recently reattached with the spine reinforced on the verso; an excellent copy of an absolute rarity. 'The Book has been written for the new regime of cricket; the batter bruise and bust cricket which has been thrust upon us. This travesty of an erstwhile noble sport demands new techniques to master it . We find after years of research that all previous books on cricket dealt mainly with batting bowling fielding and records. It is not now sufficient to wield a polished bat to execute a classic leg-glance or a neat on-drive' - you get the drift. The delicious irony is that this copy has the contemporary ownership details of a young Jeff Pash 1916-2005 then aged about 17. A few years later in 1939 he was awarded the Magarey Medal as the 'Fairest and Most Brilliant' player in the South Australian National Football League. Rigby Ltd paperback

1880259401880. Photography. Good condition. A great cricket photograph a large albumen group picture of the entire11 players in the unidentified team. <br /> <br /> Each player wears cricket whites and a cap emblazoned with a horse head or rook and elaborate belts or sashes which also bear emblems. Some players wear a striped shirt; all wear cricket boots with studs. Most sport healthy handlebar mustaches as was in vogue at the time. <br /> <br /> One player at the far right holds the cricket bat while the bowler at the far left holds the ball. The wicket-keeper rests his gloved hands on the shoulders of the seated players in front of him. There appears to be an older player with a beard showing some gray and wearing wire rim spectacles who seems somewhat out of place given the youth of the rest of the players.<br /> <br /> The team looks to be in front of a large white canvas screen an indication that this is an important game. Fall leaves cover the grass behind the team a suggestion that this was an end of season game. <br /> <br /> Approximately 13 x 10" image laid on thicker board no margins minor chipping at edges. unknown
