Title: New newbery look
Post by: Wide Chaser on December 23, 2012, 01:36:24 PM

Has anyone seen the new newbery tomahawk? I'm liking the shape, but I think the new stickers are a bit to "out of newbery character"

I've always thought them as the best an most traditional classic cricket bat company and their previous stickers represented that. I know companies have to move with the times but I think this is a step to far. What do you think?

They are a tribute to John Newbery I think so don't expect the whole range to follow suit.

I'm not really a fan of the decals either, and I much prefer the traditional newbery look, but they've grown on me a bit since the lord's show. They still have the same background and a JN tribute is quite cute and a nice touch really. I also really like the shape of the tomahawk, which is one of the main reasons I decided to stock them in the end!
