Albert Ward. Yorkshire, Lancashire & England 1886-1904. Two page letter handwritten in ink from Ward, dated May 1893. Ward is replying to a request for a cricket bat from Charles Pratt Green. ‘I cannot oblige you with a bat this time. The one I have played with nearly all season and which has made me over 1000 runs in first class cricket this year for the first time in my career. I should like to keep in remembrance of it’. Very nicely signed ‘Albert Ward’. One side of the folding letter is laid down to an blue album page. Good condition
Ward played four first-class matches for Yorkshire in 1886. He made his debut for Lancashire in 1889
