Cricket Interest - Late Victorian Honours Board from Clifton College, Bristol displaying recipients from 1890 to 1897 including in 1891 W.G. Grace, son of the famous cricketer, the board 48cm x 80.5cm, excluding frame Literature - See condition report Literature - C.L. Ludgate Monthly Vol VI, pages 61 to 70, November 1893, where the author notes “Of course I had previously heard that a son of the famous W. G. was a popular young cricketer at Clifton… the Captain of the School cricket, W. G. Grace, Jun., I found [him] particularly pleasing and unpretentious, most willing to help in any way possible or stand up for any amount of press boring. Should he only keep these good points, and achieve the brilliancy of his respected parent as a cricketer, he will make many friends. Taking last season as a whole, Grace considered his eleven had been fairly successful, and quite up to the standard of previous years, although most brilliant victories were once or twice followed by unaccountable breakdowns. Let this be as it is, the record stands well, as out of nine principal contests, five resulted in `wins, two were drawn and two lost. W. G. Grace should make a useful cricketer at Cambridge, for his all-round play at Clifton has proved him an exponent of no mean order. He takes second place in the batting statistics, and heads the bowling with fifty-one wickets, costing only 11.9 runs each. He is a thorough disciplinarian, and has earned the respect of all his school-mates” General scratching to some gilt names and a few dark marks, variation in colour of the gilding, frame appears to be a later edition laid over the existing board, sold as seen. **General condition consistent with age
