Cricketers' Almanack for 1874
WISDEN, John (1826-1884). Cricketers' Almanack for 1874. London: John Wisden, 1874.

Eleventh edition, in the original wrappers. The last edition to be less than 200 pages, with coverage principally divided between the Marylebone Club, the recently-formed Prince’s Club and the Counties, including Gloucestershire. W.G. Grace, who has a statistical table devoted solely to his own batting, scored no less than 2974 runs in 1873.

Octavo (162 x 104mm). 180pp. (Marginal spotting to K7-L2, last 4 leaves spotted with final leaf with some adhesion from rear wrapper.) Original printed pale-pink wrappers (rebacked, with loss to printed border of front wrapper, both wrappers with extensive repairs to margins and both fore-edges completely renewed, some repairs with associated losses to a few letters on rear wrapper, particularly to the list of articles in the ads on the insider rear wrapper).
