Blue print on white paper, possibly taken from a magazine, featuring fourteen men, mostly wearing mid-19th century cricketing whites. A title lies between two decorative corners featuring stylised flowers, and reads, "FIRST VICTORIAN ELEVEN". Underneath the men are the names of those depicted and other text in a scroll reading, "FIRST INTERCOLONIAL MATCH * PLAYED AT SYDNEY 1859 / [obscured text reading WON BY?] VICTORIA BY 2 WICKETS". The print is stuck onto a textured piece of cardboard.
