1934 Cigarette Cricket Set (Boxing Day Test Competition)

[TheCardMan]

As most of you know a comp was run on here for the boxing day test as to how many runs Phil Hughes would get, and well... he didn't have a great test and I ended up with the closest guess of 8 runs. Up for grabs was the 1934 Cricket Cig Set... and that was what arrived in the mail this morning.

A BIG thanks to Russell aka. pineneedlebeetle for these little beauties. The set is in absolutely remarkable condition considering it is almost 80 years old. A real piece of history, cheers buddy!

Enjoy everyone!
