For Sale is a Full Page removed from "Famous Cricketers and Cricket Grounds, 1895," showing on each side a Portrait Photograph for the Following Cricketers.

1- Charles Baldwin.
A Native of Bury St. Edmunds, "BALDWIN, of Surrey," so called to distinguish him from the player of the same name who represents Hants, had his first taste of County cricket with Suffolk.  He came up to the Oval on the recommendation of the well-known Umpire, ROBERT THOMS, with the hope, of course, of getting into the Surrey Eleven on the completion of his residential qualification.  In this he was successful, obtaining a trial for Surrey at the earliest opportunity.  On many occasions, too, his defence has been of great use to the County, and though not in the regular Team this year, may be recalled to take his place at any moment.  A keen sportsman, he is a thorough tryer, and never losing heart, frequently keeps up his wicket when batsmen of higher reputation fail.  A good fellow in every way, he is much respected by all classes of Surrey Cricketers.

2- David Denton.
The younger of two brothers who have represented the County, DAVID DENTON has, in this his first year of first-class cricket, shewn himself to be an undoubted acquisition to Yorkshire.  His introduction into the Eleven in the early part of this season was a marked success.  In each of his first two matches for the County, indeed, he carried out his bat, and his 77 not out against the University at Cambridge was an exceedingly good performance.  On this occasion, with HUNTER, the last batsman, he added 102 runs to the Yorkshire score, which is of itself a rare achievement for the tenth wicket in a first-class match.  Subsequently he had a succession of ill luck, and for a few weeks he did little or nothing with the bat.  Still he is beyond a doubt a useful and likely all-round Cricketer.  As a batsman he is particularly strong on the on side, and as he is young and keen, with the requisite experience, is likely to develop into a really good player.  In the field he is also decidedly above the average.

Condition is Very Good.
