For Sale is a Full Page removed from "Famous Cricketers and Cricket Grounds, 1895," showing Two Photographs one on each side for the Following Two Cricketers.

1- Harry Frederick Boyle..
"The Demon Bowler," to give him the title by which he was known to Australians when in his zenith of his cricket fame, "SPOFF" came in the light of a revelation to Englishmen as a bowler when he visited England with the first Australian Team in 1882.  The summary way in which H. F. BOYLE and he dismissed a strong side of M. C. C. and Ground on the first appearance of Australian Cricketers at Lord's, early that summer, will even now be well remembered.  As a bowler, was in his time quite the best of his day, varying his pace very cleverly and getting a lot of work on at times.  Located in London now for some years, he still bowls with remarkable success in club matches.

2-  William "Billy" Gunn.
With exceptional advantages in respect of physique, GUNN has at the same time made his name as a batsman by reason of the elegance of his style rather than by an exercise of his natural powers.  Standing six feet four inches at the least in his boots, he has a reach which ought to enable him to score freely off the best balls of a bowler.  Still, if he has erred, it has been from an excess of caution which has made his play at times a little tedious to watch.  None the less he has had few, if any, superiors among batsmen of late years, indeed, at the present time, has absolutely none.  Moreover, a splendid outfield too, covering a lot of ground.  Played for England, at Association Football.

Condition is Very Good.
