F.S. ASHLEY-COOPER
Indian Cricket Chronology and Memorabilia
[London: Merritt and Hatcher], 1911. 8vo., later grey-blue cloth, original red printed wrappers preserved (front wrapper and front free endpaper adhering at inner margin). Provenance: Alfred J. Gaston (ownership inscription on title dated 1912; business card pasted on back wrapper).
NO. 8 OF 30 COPIES. ALFRED GASTON'S COPY. This 16-page pamphlet is the only chronology of cricket outside England published by Ashley-Cooper, and is even rarer on the open market than the limitation would suggest. Of the 30 copies printed, 4 are in the library at Lord's. Unusually, the limitation statement appears on the back of the flamboyant red wrappers. Wynne-Thomas p. 23; Padwick 3805.
