Douglas Robert Jardine. Oxford University, Surrey & England 1920-1934. Two page handwritten letter on ‘The Scottish Australian Company Limited’, London letterhead, in ink from Jardine to Leslie Deakins, Secretary of Warwickshire C.C.C., the letter dated 3rd May 1955. Jardine is replying to a letter from Deakins regarding the ‘Association of Cricket Umpires appeal’, a cause which Jardine clearly supports having been ‘genuinely impressed (& vastly gratified) by the tremendous amount of hard voluntary work done by members’. He closes by saying he looks forward to visiting Edgbaston again. Nicely signed ‘Douglas R. Jardine’. Staple holes to top corner, otherwise in very good condition.
