    Description

    Illustrated, Original Binding, With Dustwrapper

    Wisden Cricketers' Almanack (often referred to simply as Wisden or colloquially as "the Bible of Cricket") is a cricket reference book published annually in the United Kingdom. It is considered the world's most famous sports reference book. The description "bible of cricket" was first used in the 1930s by Alec Waugh in a review for the London Mercury. With monochrome and colour photographs and vignettes throughout. Including the issues for: 1978 (115th edition) 1979 (116th edition) 1980 (117thedition) 1981 (118th edition) With advertisements to the pastedowns and endpapers.

    Condition

    In brown cloth bindings with original unclipped yellow dustwrapper to the later two volumes. Externally, smart, though with some bumping. Dustwrappers are smart, with just some light shelfwear. Internally, firmly bound. First page of the 1978 volume has been adhered to the front pastedown, with the title page missing. Institutional ink stamp to the 1981 volume. Pages are bright and clean, with just the odd spot.

    Very Good
