Lorna Thomas scrapbook 1963

In 1963 the Australian women's cricket team toured England under captain Mary Allitt. Lorna Thomas managed the tour and travelled with the team. This was the first tour to England for 12 years and England won the series. The 'glamour girls' of the Australian cricket team caught the interest of the media and Lorna Thomas collected many articles about the tour and preserved them in her scrapbook, below.
