For Sale is a Full Page removed from "The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News, May 7th, 1932,"showing the Following 4 Cricket Photographs called "Dramatic Play Marks  Cricket's Opening :  The First Matches."

   1- D. R. Jardine proves himself Master of Root's Leg trap :  (L. to R.)  D. R. Jardine, B. W. Quaife, Martin, Jackson. Perks and Brook.

   2- The All-Indians on a Sussex Country House Cricket Ground :  The Visitors Batting against Mr. T. Gilbert Scott's Eleven at Pelsham, near Rye.

  3- The Public School Cricket Season Opens :  Net Practice in Full Swing for the Boys at Dulwich College.

  4-Warwickshire at Lord's :  the Rev.  J. H. Parsons scoring to Leg off a Ball from Durston, who opened the season in deadly form.

Sensational Happenings are to be expected in the first cricket matches, when bowlers, with the weather usually on their side,  run into form more quickly than batsmen.  Worcestershire were the first visitors to the Oval and their neighbours, Warwickshire, at Lord's and in both cases bowlers mostly had the upper hand, except where Hobbs and D. R. Jardine were concerned.  The first game played by the All-Indian cricketers was on the private ground at Pelsham, where Mr. T. Gilbert Scott collected a strong side to give the visitors their first flavour of English cricket.  The two-day match ended in a draw.

Condition is Very Good.
