This auction is for an excellent signed black and white photograph which features the England fast bowler, Holcome "Hopper" Read.


Read is shown bowling inthis photograph in the only Test Match he played for England, in 1935, which is in excellent original condition and also has the press detail to the reverse of "Central Press Photos Ltd". The photograph appears to have been trimmed from the original, with the border showing to only the left hand side.


Read played in just 1 Test Match for England in 1935, also playing in just 54 first-class matches in total in his career. He was known as one of the fast bowlers of his time.


Read died in 2000, aged 89.

A rare and nicely presented photograph, in excellent condition, very little aging.


Very nice condition photograph.
