Cigarette card depicting a coloured illustrated portrait of Wally Hardinge walking across playing area. He is wearing cricket whites, pads, batting gloves and blue cap. Series No.19. Biography on reverse reads: "H. T. W. Hardinge (Kent) A product of the Kent nursery at Tonbridge, Hardinge appeared first for his county in 1902, becoming a regular member of the five years later. At the age of 42 he is still a reliable right-handed first-wicket batsman and a useful slow left-hand bowler. An innings of 249 not out against Leicestershire in 1922, is the highest of his 63 three-figure scores, while he has four times made more than 2,000 runs in a season, and on four occasions put together two centuries in a match. He played once for England against Australia-at Leeds in 1921-and has been represented his country at Soccer."
