1949 Wisden Soft Back
£55.00 £44.00
Thank you for looking at this Lovely condition 1949 Wisden soft back edition. The 86th edition.
One of the most desirable of all Wisdens. In 1948 the Australians toured and the tour became the single most successful tour of all time, by any nation. The team became known as ‘The Invincibles”- of 34 matches played, they won 25 and drew 9. Seven Australian players scored 1,000+ runs on the tour, Bradman scored 2428 and Morris 1,922. Two bowlers, Johnston and Johnson took over 200 wickets each and four other bowlers 100+ wickets each. The tour was a resounding success and in the Test series England played a very very good England team.
The covers on this 1949 are in lovely condition – they are bright and very clean. The spine is strong and firm, it has a slight bow which is normal for this year and it is slightly lighter than the covers, but overall it is in lovely condition.
Internally the pages are in super condition.
The page block is very very good.
