Object Detail
Brief Description
Large silver metal and polished wood shield, inscription etched into metal with red, black, yellow and blue decoration reads 'V.C.A. / PREMIERSHIP / 1890 - 1891. WON BY / THE / M.C.C.' At top is etched a depiction of two cricket bats crossed in front of a wicket with a ball beneath, and at bottom, a depiction of a wicket-keeper poised behind a wicket. Almost exactly the same design as M6848 except that there is more colouring on this plate; the metal plate on this shield has been affixed to the wood backing with nails which have moved, making the plate unstable; and that the name of the maker, J.S. Paterson, appears on this shield but not M6848.
