Could someone please touch this 1970's copy of Harry and Frank up? It has some dust or cloudy bits attached. Thanks in advance

Thanks McGroger - great job. A bit on the picture. Harry Alexander was a fast bowler for Victoria that played in the final test of the 1933/34 bodyline series [his only test]. Frank Bryant from WA was an opening bat who played a few tests for Australia. They toured India in a private  sponsored tour in 1936 together.
Great job.

cheers

The photo was taken in Euroa Victoria when WA played a local combined team. WA had just won a game in Melbourne & were playing the following weekend & Frank rang Harry to see if a game could be arranged at short notice which it was. Frank never played test cricket & was a good friend of Harry's. Can I ask were you got the photo? Harry was my father.
