CRICKET England V Australia Test Match (23rd August 1938)
(Fabulous one-off one-sided IBC Studio 10" acetate recording
featuring approximately 8-minutes of spoken word commentary from
that momentous day in 1938 when 22-year-old Leonard Huttonmade
cricketing history surpassing Donald Bradman's record score,
achieving 364 runs at The Oval. The first two tracks feature
commentary from that very moment in the game, and the two
subsequent tracks feature Hutton speaking about his achievement.
The acetate has a type-written studio label, with an additional
hand-annotated inscription that reads, 'To Deadly From The Master,
Vancouver 1973'. The disc plays fine, with some audible crackle and
pops, but nonetheless is utterly delightful!)
