NICOLLS, ROBERTSBRIDGE, PATENTEE & MANUFACTUKEE OP THE AUTOMATIC BAT HANDLE rp H E S E eDgravings show the advan t tages this handle gives. ' as each curve forms a key or abutment, against the elastic substance. Although these handles are in two pieces from the shoulder to the blade, it is impossible to eet them out of shape. The bats, introduced in 1890, have been used by the bes' Cricketers of England, Australia, and New Zealand, as well as having been sent to India and Africa, and the uni­ verse testimony is that nothing has ever been brought into the Cricketing world to give su ch advantages to the batsman in cutting and driving powers.
