The Badminton Magazine of Sports and pastimes was a sports magazine published monthly between 1895 and 1923. Comprising articles on an impressive array of sporting themes and extensively illustrated with full page and text photographs. These magazines not only offer a fascinating insight on a bygone age but also much information and anecdote that is still useful today. Within each issue are contained veritable gems of articles that cater for every sporting taste. Its diverse features make it an absorbing read for any sportsman or historian. This issue contains, amongst many others, chapters on: Alpine Climbing Past And Present, The Art Of Modern Fencing, Fishing In Canada And The London Polo Season. Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive.
