The Cricketers' Register: containing the scores of the principal matches played in Victoria during the season 1863-4; also an account of the second visit of the All England Eleven
Melbourne: Sands and McDougall, 1864. 12mo., pp. 168-170 with diagrams of field-placings, 9 wood-engraved illustrations on three end leaves, advertisements (title-page and end advertisements in facsimile, preface leaf soiled and with marginal repair, B4 with bottom corner torn, C1 with top margin cropped), modern brown half calf and marbled boards, facsimile wrappers bound in. Provenance: top of preface leaf with indistinct signature, dated 1863/4 -- Thomas Warre Redall? (signature on p. 5).
Second and last year of issue under this title, the first being in 1863, though the Cricketers' Register was actually a continuation of the Victorian Cricketer's Guide. This issue is of special interest for including an account of "The Second Visit of the All England Eleven to Australia" (pp. 109-153). The editor, W.J. Hammersley, was a well-known cricketer who captained Victoria in earlier years and had played for Cambridge against Oxford in 1847. VERY RARE. Padwick 3366 (wrongly calling for 178 rather than 179p).
