These early 1890s volumes indicate the changes in Wisden under Sydney Pardon's editorship. Pardon started in 1891, and continued for some thirty-five years. The volumes almost instantly become weightier volumes than those issued previously, and are not only packed with match scores but full reports, feature articles and strong overseas coverage.
