JAMES LILLYWHITE , FROWD & Co.'s Cane- handle Bats are universally acknowledged to be unrivalled . Being constructed on thoroughly scientific principles from the best quality and well seasoned materials , by picked workmen they leave nothing to be desired in point of real excellence ; their durability and driving qualities adapting them equally well for practice and for m a t c h e s. These Bats are used by all the leading Gentle- m e nand Professional players of the day, in the country and abroad, and are largely patronised b ythe Military and NavalServices andthe chief Colleges , Schools , and Clubs everywhere . J. L. , F. & Co. have been appointed makers to the Surrey County Club, and had the honour of makingthe presentation Bats given by the Com- mittee to W. G. Grace, Esq., andW. L. Murdoch, Esq., for their fine display of batting in the grand match, England v.Australia , played at Kenning- ton Oval, September, 1880 ; also manyothers . Ourn e w" Special Driver" Bat(Frowd's Patent ) has given results hitherto unattained by anyother Bat, the driving power being greater , and stinging or concussion to the hands is reduced practically to nil . Areduction in weight of from oneto twoounces is also effected . Thesuccess of this Bat during 1881 , the first. season's use , was altogether unprecedented in the annals of Cricket , and this has been fully con- firmed by the results of the subsequent season . The opinions expressed as to its superiority to any other Bat are unanimous, and w e have received great numbersof perfectly spontaneous testimonials concerning it, someof them being quite enthusi- astic , from all parts of the country, andfrom the colonies . These testimonials m a ybe seen at our warehouse. A nextensive Stock always on handto select from. C R I C K E T B A L L S . James Lillywhite ,Frowd &Co.'s C e l e b r a t e d M a t c h B.
