I will give anything to get a collection like that. I have since scourged the internet on many occasions to find if anyone has a collection that he wants to sell but haven't been successful. :(
Vow, such a collection should be in a auction

Can you start a new thread for it? I've also got a solid collection (a bunch of stuff by Fingleton, a few by Arlott, Ray Robinson, Guha, Benaud and one or two by Cardus and plenty more...) - can throw out some reviews as well later.
Thats a good idea. . . I could do that. Since most of them are on the CW website I will provide the link or if people want, I can do a cut and paste job too. By the way, the CW Book Review section is a very large one and people looking for reviews can always check it out. They have almost all new books covered and quite a few old ones.

Wow I am jealous of that. I used to collect them from the time the magazine was called Sports and Pastime. It was an amazing collection of photographs from the games going on. I remember in one issue, the one that covered this Test match between India and England in 1964. It had 96 photographs from the Test ? It was amazing. We used to sit down to listen to Test match commentaries on radio with issues of Sports & Pastime spread out in front of us and visualise the strokes :) I had all issues of the magazine from 1961 to March 1985. I left in March '85 for Bombay to start my career as a corporate honcho and left my precious magazines in an old trunk thinking I will come back and take them with me by train since the trunk was to much to take on the flight. I continued buying the magazine in Bombay and Baroda where I was busy setting up a new plant and then, a couple of years later, I decided to get my magazines back and found that my mother had sold the lot to the "kabadiwala" thinking I had finally grown out of my junoon of collecting "junk" about the game now that I was a "bada saheb". I was furious. For the only time in my entire life with my gentle mother. In a pique I got rid of the two years of magazines I had bought after leaving Delhi since the more precious part of my collection was gone, used to pack peanuts in Jhumri Tallaya I suppose :) I will give anything to get a collection like that. I have since scourged the internet on many occasions to find if anyone has a collection that he wants to sell but haven't been successful. :(
I bet you won't mind paying a huge amount to get your stuff back, isn't it? How far can you go?
