19. THE AMERICAN CRICKETER. A JOURNAL DEVOTED TO THE NOBLE GAME OF

CRICKET. A COMPLETE SET, COMPRISING VOLUME I, NUMBER 1 TO VOLUME LII, NUMBER 868 (28th JUNE 1877 TO APRIL, 1929) INCLUSIVE. Philadelphia, 1877-1929. Fifty-two volumes bound in twenty-nine. 4to. Illustrated. Bound in cloth and half calf, (binding not uniform), with many original part wrappers preserved. (A COMPLETE SET). The American Cricketer was started by Daniel S. Newhall and Henry Cope, of the Young American Cricket Club, and Henry W. Brown, of the Germantown Cricket Club. The aim of this magazine was originally to serve as the public organ of all cricketers in America. The first issue stated that there were some three hundred cricket clubs throughout the United States of which seven were in Philadelphia. Ably edited by a committee headed by Newhall, The American Cricketer was published weekly from May to November, and monthly from November to May, and provided the centre for information and exchange of opinion that had long been needed. Each issue contains details of fixtures, the formation of new clubs, information on tours by foreign teams, details of American and foreign scores, etc. From 1899, although still mainly concerned with cricket, this periodical contained sections on golf, tennis, association football, rowing, and other kindred sports. By 1927, The American Cricketer had become interested mainly in the cricket of the past, or cricket in remote places, and had become a very unreliable guide, especially to the game in Philadelphia. By 1928 there was no printing of fixtures, and with the issue of April 1929, the periodical finished publication. Editors included: Henry Cope (1877 to 1879); Oscar A. Knipe (1881 to 1883); A.J.D. Dixon (1883 to 1890); George T. Morgan (1890 to 1892); William F. Brown (1893 to 1894); J.H. Patterson (1894 to 1895); J.H. Mason (1895 to 1900); W.N. Morice (1900 and 1901); Sydney Young (1901 to 1904); F.H. Clarke (1904 to 1906); H.H. Cornish (1906 to 1912); A.J. Henry (1912 to 1919); Joseph Parker Norris (1919 to 1929). A complete set of The American Cricketer is extremely rare. John Lester in his Century of Philadelphia Cricket, 1951, mentions only two complete sets, in the Philadelphia Library of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania and in the Library of Haverford College. The Marylebone Cricket Club has an incomplete set, made with up with photocopies of some of the original issues. The British Museum Library does not have any holdings of this periodical, and its omission from the British Union Catalogue of Periodicals indicates that no significant runs of The American Cricketer are to be found in the major Libraries in this country.

Item175 continued from previous page… Taylor, Catalogue of Cricket Literature, 1906, pages 17-18: 'This book, perhaps the most rare and coveted of the very few contributions to the literature of cricket in the early days, and certainly the first practical treatise on the game, is probably worth its weight in gold. The exact date of the first edition is somewhat difficult to define. It has been given by different authorities as 1790, 1800 and 1803, but the last date appears the most probable, and seeing that the paper on which this edition was printed is water-marked “1801” it is impossible for the book to have appeared before that year...the first edition, with its valuable engraving, in good condition...is priceless.’ (Taylor’s note is incorrect as the first edition did not have a frontispiece).

A reprint edited by F.S. Ashley-Cooper appeared in 1922. This poem describes the match between Kent and England, played at the Artillery-Ground, June 18th, 1744. The match was won by Kent by one wicket, and is noteworthy as being the earliest of which the individual scores have been preserved. It is the first match recorded in Scores and Biographies, although the date was then thought to be 1746. The correct date was discovered to be 1744 by F.S. Ashley-Cooper and this was recorded in Cricket: A Weekly Record of the Game for 24th November, 1898. Bowen, Cricket: A History of its Growth and Development, 1970: ‘...the first great match of which the full score has been preserved, Kent v. All England on the Artillery ground (a less important match was played a few days earlier, whose score also survives). The match, won by Kent, was described in full by James Dance, alias Love, in his Cricket: a [sic] Heroic Poem.’ James Love, [born James Dance, 1722-1774], was educated at Merchant Taylor's School.

VOLUMES I - XXI. A COMPLETE SET. London, Cambridge & Louth, 1862-1925, 2003-2017. Twenty-one volumes. Large 8vo.

Volumes I-IV original black half morocco, covers soiled.

Volumes V-XIV original red cloth, covers soiled. Volumes XV-XXI original cloth in dust-wrappers, good condition. This set comprises the fifteen volumes of the original edition [1862-1925], and the recently published sixteenth to twenty-first editions [2003-2017] which have been compiled from Arthur Haygarth’s notes in the M.C.C. Library at Lord’s. These volumes give full scores of all important matches played between 1744 and 1884. This work and Wisden’s Almanack are the standard reference books of cricket. No other work on any sport can have involved so much research. Haygarth devoted his life to investigating cricket and its history, collecting material, studying score-books, and correcting records. He questioned every notable cricketer and knowledgeable person. He absorbed the early records of Epps, Britcher and Bentley into Scores and Biographies by incorporating full scores of all major matches, interspersed with short biographies of many cricketers who played in the matches. The first volume of Scores and Biographies was published in 1862 by Frederick Lillywhite, who annoyed Haygarth by claiming a part in the compilation. Early on F.P. Miller, the Surrey captain who financially assisted this publication before M.C.C. carried on publishing volumes V to XV between 1876 and 1925, when they decided that it was no longer financially viable. Although volumes I to IV bear the name F. Lillywhite, Arthur Haygarth in fact compiled volumes I to XIV. Volume XV only contains biographies and was edited by F.S. Ashley-Cooper from Haygarth’s notes. Volumes XVI to XXI were compiled later from Haygarth’s notes. Gaston, Cricket Books and Their Prices, [in The Cricket Field, Volume II, 1893, pages 511-512]: ‘4 vols., containing cricket from 1746 [sic] to 1854. Dedicated to Mr. Arthur Haygarth, the indefatigable and honorary compiler. These four volumes are most exhaustive, and are all out of print. The late Mr. F.P. Miller, of Surrey, it is stated, expended something like £2,000 in all in printing and publishing these books; while Mr. Arthur Haygarth most generously, and at his own expense, visited all the famous old cricket grounds for material...Fabulous prices are now asked for these four volumes...The four volumes I have in my possession were given me by the compiler, Mr. Arthur Haygarth, and naturally I prize them more than the whole of the cricket books which compose my library. These four volumes are worth 10 guineas.’ Britton, Cricket Books, The 100 Best, 1929, pages 25-27: ‘The foundation stone of a cricket library.’ Arlott, Cricket. A Reader’s Guide, 1950, pages 9-10: ‘the standard reference book of major matches and players between 1744 and 1878, with biographies continued in Volume XV, to include the chief players making their first appearances up to 1898.’ Padwick, Bibliography of Cricket, 1984, 805.

Gale; Early Cricket Books, in Lillywhite Cricketer’s Annual, 1876, page 24. ‘...I need say but little about this book, which is a flagrant and deliberate piracy of Boxall’s. Whether Lambert had personally anything to do with the fraud it is hard to say, but he was far too ignorant to have written or even dictated anything of the kind himself.

A spurious twentieth edition would, from the content of the Laws, appear to be earlier than the twelfth which is probably the last. It has lately been proven that except for this twelfth edition, which contains an accurate version of the Code of 1830, Lambert cannot be relied on as an authority for changes in the Laws.’ Allen, Early Books on Cricket, 1987, no. 17: ‘The puzzle surrounding the numbering of the editions is unlikely ever to be solved. There are 13 known editions, the penultimate being numbered 20th and the last, which was published circa 1830-32, being numbered 12th. The 13th-19th editions have not been found and were probably never produced.’ Gaston, Bibliography of Cricket, 1895, page 8, incorrectly notes: ‘Lambert’s Guide ran through 20 Editions, but dates are not given on title pages.’ Taylor, Catalogue of Cricket Literature, 1906, page 61: ‘The first and second issues comprise 55pp. post 8vo.; the third, fourth and fifth editions 62pp. post 8vo.; the seventh edition 61pp. 16mo.; to which was subjoined The New Single Wicket Game; and the tenth to twentieth editions 47pp. 16mo. These guides are very rare...Unfortunately the editions are undated.’ Taylor probably copied the error in Gaston, Bibliography of Cricket, 1895, and incorrectly notes: ‘Lambert's Guide ran through twenty editions.’ Goldman, Bibliography of Cricket, 1937, page 119: ‘Although copied from Boxall’s Guide, is one of the rarest cricket publications...the later editions seem to be scarcer than the earlier ones.’ Padwick 383: ‘13th-19th editions have not been traced and probably were never published.’ £2,500.00

Twenty-eight volumes in original red cloth, covers soiled, one volume (1875) rebound in red cloth, otherwise a good set. (A COMPLETE SET).

After 1885 it incorporated Lillywhite's Cricketer's Companion. However, by 1900 the success of Wisden's Cricketer's Almanack was such that it was unable to continue. The volumes for 1872 and 1873 are not illustrated; the volumes for 1874 and 1875 contain an engraved plate (of W.G. Grace and Ephraim Lockwood). The volumes for 1876 to 1888 inclusive each contain a photographic frontispiece; the volumes for 1889 to 1900 each contain a half-tone frontispiece.

The first in a series of six pamphlets of cricket research published between 1923 and 1929. Thomas published the results of his studies under the pen name 'H. P.-T.' in six volumes between 1923 and 1929. These were then published in one volume under the general title Old English Cricket. These exhaustive and scholarly treatises form the most important studies of the origins of the game. Writing under the pseudonym H. P.-T. the author has set out, as the result of many years of painstaking research, valuable evidence on the origin of cricket and the early conduct of the game. The author was fortunate in that his publisher, the Nottingham firm C.H. Richards, published a number of cricket books over the years, largely of limited appeal, solely out of their enthusiasm for the game. Not many copies of the H. P.-T. studies were printed and, consequently, they are now difficult to obtain.
