WILLIAM LAMBERT
England's Standard ... Cricketer's Guide; or, Instructions and Rules for playing the Noble Game of Cricket
Lewes: Sussex Press, J. Baxter, London: Joy, Simpkin and Marshall, Sherwood and Co., [1829?]. 12mo. (5¾ x 3½; 142 x 85mm), 47p., woodcut title vignette (lacks the frontispiece, light spotting of title and preliminaries), green half calf by Morrell, original printed grey-green wrappers bound in. Provenance: S. J. Adams (contemporary ownership signature on front blank) -- J. W. Goldman (bookplate).
"Twentieth" [in fact the twelfth] edition, on paper watermarked 1828. As Padwick states, the 13-19th editions have not been traced and probably never existed. The so-called "twentieth" edition appeared after the eleventh but before the "twelfth". Padwick 383.
