First Award, Silver Medal, UNDER THE SPECIAL PATRONAGE Melbourne, 1888. Exhibition THE MARYLEBONE CRICKET CLUB London 1851. International Exhibition Testimonial from H. PERKINS, Esq.% Secretary of the M.C C. “ Messrs DARK & SONS’ CR1CKE CBALLS are the only ones in use at LORD’S CRICKET GROUND. We have tried other Makers, and con­ sider DARK’S MUCH THE BEST. HENRY PERKINS, Sec., M.C.C.” From the " F I E L D " “ CRICKET BALLS.—A good Cricket Ball is a wonderful specimen of what a clever workman can accomplish. Cricketers, however, know that the most perfectly made Ball is of little value unless the best materials are used in its manufac»ure. We have lately examined a sample of the Balls made by Messrs. DARK & SONS, of Lord’s Cricket Ground, where no Balls except those of their own make are ueed, and as far as hand and eye can judge, they could scarcely be surpassed for work­ manship or material. To ensure the excellence of the latter Messrs. DARK prepare their own Leather at their works at Hildenborough.” N.B.— None but DARK’S CRICKET BALLS are ever used in the MATCHES at LORD’S CRICKET GROUND, either by the MARYLEBONE CLUB, or the MIDDLESEX COUNTY CLUB, or in the OXFORD AND CAMBRIDGE and ETON AND HARROW MATCHES.
