When they reviewed Yearbooks, Tour Guides, Benefit Brochures and the like. The Wisden Cricketer used to say if the photographs were almost all of people shaking hands and not much in the way of action photos, it would not be a good read.
Another thing I miss from the Yearbook is the advert every edition for Direct Communications of St Ives, ( the one near Cambridge, not the one in Cornwall). It got a bit faded over the years but it had a batsman using a radio to hit a big Cricket ball with Direct Communications, mobile radio hire and sales, St Ives e t c written on it. There was a bubble coming out of the batsman's mouth saying Dont laugh it will still go for six.
Direct Communications are still trading.
