Original official souvenir programme published by the Hong Kong Cricket League for E. W. Swanton's Commonwealth Cricket Team tour of Hong Kong, 31 March–7 April 1964. 67 pages, measuring 12.7 × 19 cm, in the original printed wrappers. Illustrated throughout and signed contemporaneously on the players' portrait pages by E. W. Swanton, Sir Leonard Hutton, Sir Garfield Sobers, Seymour Nurse, Sonny Ramadhin, the Nawab of Pataudi, Richie Benaud, Ian M. McLachlan, K. Taylor, M. G. Griffith, T. B. L. Coghlan, J. D. Piachaud and N. C. Pretzlik. The signature of Sir Garfield Sobers, one of the greatest cricketers of all time, is the outstanding feature of this remarkable survival. Official programmes from the tour are scarce, while examples carrying such an extensive and well-preserved group of authentic player autographs are rarely encountered. Very good condition with minor edge wear, marks and creasing to the wrappers.
