1982 Wisden Hardback

This is a Lovely condition 1982 original Wisden Hardback edition. The 118th edition.

This is one of the most desirable of post-war Wisdens – for this contains the full record and analysis of the 1981 Ashes series in England. ‘Botham’s Ashes’ – The ‘Phoenix From The Ashes’ as the series and Englands’ resurgence has been named. Mike Brearley took over as captain following Bothams’ resignation after the drawn Lord’s Test – the rest is history.

The dust jacket covers on this edition is in lovely condition –  the covers are very bright and very clean, the spine is also in very very good condition – the spine is a little lighter than the covers. The jacket has been housed in a completely transparent removable cover.

Internally a delightful edition.

The page block is super.
