1892 and 1893 Willows Wisdens – a set of two

£175.00 £131.25

This is a SUPER condition set of two Willows Wisdens, the 1892 and the 1893.  The 29th and 30th editions.

Both Willows Wisden are in splendid condition, as you would expect.

The boards on each are exceptional and the contents delightful. The page block on both is lovely.

These are both numbered editions. The 1893 Willows is from the second print run, but as finding these editions can be tricky and the fact that so many overall editions were printed, it does not matter one jot which print run it comes from.

1892 Contents Include:
Rules of County Cricket.
Five Great Bowlers.
The Development of Cricket.
The Bibliography of Cricket.
Some Cricket Records.

County Champions: Surrey.
The English Team in America.

1893 Contents Include:
Rules of County Cricket.
Five Batsmen of the Year.
Hints From The Press Box.
George Lohmann – A Few Words on Fielding.
The Calendar, 1893.
