Description:
October 1966 Annual Dinner Menu (The Forty Club) at the London Hilton, Park Lane, signed by all those seated at Table 10, including Sir Len Hutton, Tom Graveney, R.A. Hutton, John Gardiner, and Joe Lister. Attractively framed & glazed, overall 47 x 42 cm.. Also, a Forty Club peaked woollen team cap with the logo embroidered to front panel, made by Jack Hobbs Ltd., Islington. (2 items). The Forty Club is reputed to be the largest wandering cricket Club in the world. As a wandering or nomadic Club it does not own its own ground, and so always 'plays away'. The historic aim of the Club since its foundation in 1936 has been 'to take cricket to the schools' by offering State and Public Schools, and Youth XIs, fixtures against experienced cricketers who will encourage the young cricketers to play the game to the highest standards of performance and behaviour and in the best spirit of the game.
