1880réf. 13433London: William MacKenzie 1880. Otherwise very good condition. Kennington Oval home ground to the Surrey Cricket Club since 1845 and the first ground in England to host international test cricket. A view of an international cricket match.

Ten players shown with the eleventh out of view and 2 umpires one wearing a top hat. In the background gas holding tanks. Lithograph ca. 1880. 8 1/2 x 5 3/4" with large margins.

réf. 24480An original vintage gelatin silver press photograph 120 × 165 mm with a typed caption mounted on the verso: 'Australians dismissed for 156 runs in their first innings against Essex at Leyton. Fairfax Australia loses his leg stump to Palmer after scoring 12 runs'. The photograph is taken from behind the wicket and includes the wicket-keeper the fieldsman at slips Alan Fairfax the cartwheeling stump and Alan Kippax the batsman at the non-striker's end. Of far greater consequence however is the signature pencilled on the verso of the image: that of Archie Jackson the New South Wales and Australian Test batsman who died of tuberculosis in 1933 at the early age of 23. Jackson and his friend and supporter Fairfax were room-mates on the 1930 tour of England which helps explain why this particular image from this tour bears his ownership signature. unknown

Single sheet, a near fine copy. Signed simply 'Wavell' in the writer's usual manner, the letter is written to Geoffrey Moore, founder of the Buccaneers Cricket Club, and demonstrates the soldier's keen and continuing interest in the sport. It is noteworthy that Wavell was particularly proud of his membership of the MCC at Lords. The letter declines Moore's invitation to attend the annual dinner, but carries Wavell's best wishes for the Club for the coming year during which he hopes to see tham in action. Field-Marshal Earl Wavell (1883-1950) was one of the twentieth century's most distinguished soldiers. Following considerable success against the Italians in North Africa, his career reached its peak with his appointment as Supreme Allied Commander, South West Pacific, ABDA (American, British, Dutch and Australian) Command in 1942 and subsequently as an outstanding Viceroy and Governor General of India from 1943-1947. He was recognised also as a scholar, compiling the well-known anthology of poetry 'Other Mens's Flowers' (1944). The bulk of Wavell's papers are now housed in the Liddell Hart Centre for Military Archives at King's College, London. Founded in 1930, The Buccaneers is one of the oldest and most famous 'wandering' clubs in English cricket (a 'wandering' club has no fixed home ground but plays consistently as an 'away' team relying on the hospitality of the 'home' clubs against which it competes). The Club's history has been written twice, by Clifford Bax in 1956 and more recently by Howard Spencer. ORIGINAL DOCUMENTS SIGNED BY WAVELL ARE EXTREMELY SCARCE.

1938réf. 134463Broughty 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. 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'.

réf. 66219Very Good. Printed in blue on white silk now framed and glazed visible surface 245 × 185 mm. A few light creases and light marginal spotting; in excellent condition. Australia lost by an innings and 18 runs . and 18 was Australia's total first innings score! Kelly Graham and Trott scored 8 4 and 6 respectively; Darling was the last man standing on nought Giffen was unable to take to the field so only ten men played but Gregory Iredale Hill Trumble Eady and McKibbin ALL scored ducks! Bowling figures were Pougher 5-0 Hearne 4-4. This is still Australia's lowest first-class score a record they hope won't ever be broken. unknown

Ziegler 40 Elizabeth St Norwood' Ernest Charles Victor Ziegler active 1879-1925. The photograph and mount are in superb condition behind glass in the original frame. 'The Advertiser' 11 December 1931 sets the scene for these Inter-Collegiate matches: 'Today the annual cricket match between St Peter's and Prince Alfred Colleges will begin at the Adelaide Oval. Last year the game was played at Prince Alfred College the first time in the history of the matches first played in 1878 that the Adelaide Oval was not available. The match is one of the most important cricket events outside first-class matches in South Australia although in recent years it has failed to sic the importance and drawing power of inter-collegiate matches played before the war. Many famous cricketers have graduated from the college teams'. The 1910 SPSC team - victorious to the tune of 232 runs - was no exception; sitting next to each other are C.E. Pellew and Vice-Captain A.G. Moyes. 'Nip' Pellew played for South Australia 1913-14 to 1928-29 the AIF Touring XI 1919 to 1919-20 and Australia ten Tests in 1920-21. Johnny Moyes a 'promising young cricketer . had represented 1912-15 South Australia making a century on debut been chosen 1914 for Australia in a tour cancelled due to World War I against South Africa and played for Victoria in 1920. In Sydney he achieved one of the highest individual scores in grade cricket when he made 218 runs in 83 minutes for the Gordon District Cricket Club in 1922. he served as a New South Wales selector 1926-27 and wanted Sir Donald Bradman to play for the State' 'Australian Dictionary of Biography'. For many years he worked as a journalist including fifteen years as sporting editor of 'The Sun' and he published thirteen books on cricket. In 1949 he began 'broadcasting sporting sessions for the Australian Broadcasting Commission. In 1950-51 he covered his first Test series against England. In 1955 he received a full-time contract.
