John Wisden's Cricketers' Almanack for 1885
John Wisden & Co., 1885.
Original publisher's peach paper wrappers printed in black. A fine copy, exceptionally clean and crisp with just trivial wear to the spine corners.
A record of the 1884 season which includes the obituary of John Wisden himself, as well as visits from The Gentleman of Philadelphia and W.L.Murdoch's Australians who played three Tests including the first to be played at Lord's, which England won by an innings and 5 runs.
Wisdens from this period are seldom found in original wrappers without significant repair or damage and are rare in such sparkling condition.
