About this copy
This is a first edition, first printing hardcover anthology of cricket writing, drawing together extracts from authors including Charles Dickens, Arthur Conan Doyle, P. G. Wodehouse, Don Bradman, Edmund Blunden, and many others. The copyright page carries a full descending number line (1 3 5 7 9 10 8 6 4 2), consistent with this being a first printing. The book is housed in its original pictorial dust jacket, which carries the publisher's printed price of £8.99 on the rear panel and does not appear to have been price-clipped.
Condition
- Book
- Very Good – boards are clean, square, and free from significant marking or wear.
- Dust jacket
- Very Good – bright and glossy, with a small surface crease/nick noted at the lower edge of the front panel. No major tears or loss.
This is a pre-owned book, and minor age-related wear may be present beyond what is specifically mentioned. All readily visible defects have been described to the best of my ability. Please see photos, which form part of the description.
