Brief Description
Colour print of a two woman on an expanse of grass, one holding a cricket bat and the other wicket-keeping behind some stumps. They are wearing cricketing attire common of men in the late 19th century, including form-fitting white pants, loose shirts (one light blue, the other red and white), small caps, leg pads and white shoes with peach-coloured straps. The print is adhered to a second piece of paper which has adhesive tape at top and bottom (probably from mounting), and the number "8" written on the back in pencil.
