EAST MELBOURNE CRICKET CLUB: 1874-75 Member's Season Ticket, red leather with gold embossing, the interior printed in blue with space for the member's name in manuscript (W.J. Daly) and the signature of the Honorary Treasurer, J.G. Russell. Superb condition and extremely rare. The East Melbourne Cricket Ground was a grass oval located at the corner of Wellington Parade and Jolimont Parade, in East Melbourne. Now part of Yarra Park and being adjacent to the MCG, the site is most well known for playing host to many sporting events during Melbourne's early years, consisting mainly of Cricket, Australian Rules Football and occasionally Association Football (soccer). It opened in 1860 and closed in 1921. East Melbourne Cricket Club was the most successful member of the Victorian Cricket Association during the 19th Century and early 20th Century, winning more than half of the VCA's Premierships during that period. The club was formed in 1857 as the Abbotsford Cricket Club but they soon changed their name as part of a push to use the East Melbourne ground. The team mainly consisted of Scotch College old boys.
