When I was high school, my brother had a @200-300 page book of Pakistan tour of England. That book had at least 30-40 pictures from that tour - even from county matches. When I moved to USA a few years ago, I left all my cricket book/magazine collection with my nephew. But now..... nobody knows where that collection is.

You should ask your nephew to try to find them there are many moments from that tour which are missing from internet. Many people including me would love to see them.

I would love to have that book now. That was my most prized piece of my collection. My brother bought it from a book hawker (sitting at a footpath) for pennies outside Anarkali close to Govt College Lahore!
I certainly miss that book. I'll ask him... but I doubt if he has that book.

Yes... 100% agree... he was the one (along with Hanif) who put us on cricket map!

Thanks again bro for sharing all these great pictures and try to ask your nephew if he can find them.

NP... I'll ask him.

I think he is talking about the mothers of Imran, Majid and Burki?
