NICOLLS, ROBERTSBRIDGE, PATENTEE ft MANUFACTURER OF TEH AUTOMATIC BAT HANDLE. •p HEBE engravings A show the advan-1 tages this handle gives, 1 as each curve forms a I key or abmtment, against the elastic Bubstance. Although these handles are in two pieces from the shoulder of the blade, it is impossible to get them out of shape. These bats, introduced in 1889, have been used by the best Cricketers of England, Australia, and New Zealand, as well as having been sent to India and Africa, and the uni­ versal testimony is that nothing has ever been brought into the Cricketing world to { ive such advantages 0 the batsman in batting and driving powers.
