W. G. Grace

Original - William Gilbert "W. G." Grace (1848 – 1915), English cricketer, taking guard. Signed in ink in the lower white border.

Reason

This is a really interesting photo of one the most famous players in the history of cricket, though on the small side - will be interested in what people make of that. But, as we've said before, these type of photos are hard to source outside the US, and I believe you can see what you need to here. Has been in the infobox of W. G. Grace for over a year (where oddly enough it was placed by me, even though I have no recollection of having edited this article and can't remember why I did so :-) ).
