BRIAN CLOSE, SLAZENGER SHORT HANDLE BAT, made by Slazenger in England, front face signed by England and the Rest of the World teams from the 1970 "Test Series", which came about after the late cancellation of the South African tour of England, back signed by the Surrey county team, including Stewart, also signed by Yorkshire, including Boycott and by the Derbyshire county team.
Faced with the unwelcome prospect of an empty home season the TCCB devised a series of five matches between England and the rest of the world. England caps where awarded, and the Test Matches accorded unoffical status. Wisden gave the individual figures separately as befitted an one-off occasion belonging to no regular series.
