Sometimes this takes a lot of practice. Hope your nephew is the studious type.

Got them all from 1945 to current, some great reading in there, especially the Bradman Ashes editions...

Plenty of reading in bed there Brad. I have three left out of about forty. 1935, 1949 and 1957. The 1949 has one of the five cricketers of the year, Arthur Morris. autographed.

Yes Ron plenty of reading, I would like to keep going but any of them prior to WWII are fairly pricey.

What happened to the other 37 you had Ron? Sold them off?

 

[COMPO]

Yes. Before the last house move. Just perused your bucket. Beyond words. Is the Border holoram sample worth $20?.

Thanks - the cricket card section of the bucket needs a fair bit of updating!

Yeah i'd spend $20 to get one. Haven't seen a Holo sample for sale for a while. There were only 200 made from memory so it is a fairly tough one to find.
