George Parr (1826-1891): A Pioneering Cricketer of the Mid-19th Century This illustration showcases George Parr, an English cricketer of extraordinary talent and versatility, who graced the field between 1844 and 1870. Parr's cricket career was marked by his remarkable ability to represent some of the most esteemed county teams, including Nottinghamshire, Surrey, Sussex, and Kent, as well as the Marylebone Cricket Club (MCC). Born in 1826, Parr made his first-class debut for Nottinghamshire in 1844, and his impact was immediate. Over the next 26 years, he would go on to play in an impressive 207 first-class matches, amassing a total of over 6000 runs. These numbers place him among the finest cricketers of his era. Parr's cricketing prowess extended beyond his county commitments. He was a regular import for Sussex and Kent, and his contributions to these teams were invaluable. Parr's versatility and consistency earned him a place in the MCC, the pinnacle of English cricket at the time. This illustration, believed to have been created circa 1845, captures Parr in the prime of his career. His intense focus and determined expression speak to the passion and dedication that defined his approach to the game.
