The heavyweights are Benaud (Captain), Booth, Craig, Davidson, Flockton (12th man), Ford, Neil Harvey, Martin, Misson, O'Neill, Simpson and Thomas. Only Ford and Flockton were not current or former Test players (and five of them were Test captains). Webster as ever breathes life into this sheet of paper with his account. After a first day declaration, 'Richie Benaud mesmerised the New Zealand batsmen before lunch . in a spell of 3/4 from 7 overs. The attacking play of Dick (chanceless 127 from 190 balls in 150 minutes, 23 fours), who hit his only first-class century in a 78-match career' livened things up, but NSW finally won by 59 runs. Two tiny spots and trifling edge discoloration well clear of the signatures; in excellent condition.

The signatures are Lloyd (Captain), Ali, Baichan, Boyce, Fredericks, Gibbs, Greenidge, Holder, Holding, Julien, Kallicharran, (possibly) Murray, Richards, Rowe and Clive Walcott (the Manager). On a conjugate leaf are the signatures of eight members of the Test team for Australia: Gilmour, Jenner, Lillee, Mallett, Marsh, McCosker, Turner and Walker. These were probably collected at the time of the First Test in Brisbane, in which case the Australians not to have signed are Ian Chappell (Captain), Greg Chappell, Redpath and Thomson. Leading edges of the leaves slightly silverfish-nibbled; all edges slightly discoloured; two small light marginal spots; in very good condition.

The signatures are Brown (Captain), Alec Bedser, Berry, Close, Compton, Dewes, Evans, Hollies, Hutton (twice - once in ink), McIntyre, Parkhouse, Sheppard, Simpson, Warr, Washbrook and Wright (plus Nash, one of the managers, in ink). The only player not to have signed is Bailey. Given the starring role Hutton played in the series (let alone throughout his 27-year long first-class career), it is perhaps appropriate that his signature should appear twice! Two small light marks well clear of the signatures; in excellent condition.

Apart from two tiny filing holes along the top edge away from the signatures, the leaf is in excellent condition. Offered together with the official 'Fourth Test Illustrated Souvenir Programme and Score Sheet. Adelaide Oval 1947' [cover title] and a facsimile 'MCC Tour in Australia & New Zealand 1946-47' signature sheet (205 x 140 mm). The match summary in Webster supplies some interesting statistics: Compton and Morris provided the first instance of two batsmen scoring centuries in each innings in the same Test; Lindwall ended the England first innings with three wickets in four balls; Bradman scored a duck in his first innings and Evans batted for 95 minutes in the second innings before scoring his first run, a record for all first-class cricket. 'Neil Harvey rated his oldest brother Mervyn as "the best" cricketer' of all six Harvey brothers, four of whom played first-class cricket. The war interrupted his promising career, and this match was his Test debut; 'he scored 12 and 31, partnering Arthur Morris in a 116 opening stand, but Australia was over-supplied with openers, and it remained his solitary Test' (Oxford Companion to Australian Cricket). The match was drawn.
