The print, dating back to the 19th century and part of a private collection, exudes an air of Victorian elegance with its hand-coloured detailing. Featured as an advertisement for the Harness Electropathic Belt in the Illustrated London News on October 21st, 1893, this image captures not only Gunn's sporting prowess but also serves as a testament to the advertising techniques of that era.

His focused gaze and confident stance reflect his status as one of Nottinghamshire's most celebrated professionals at that time. This illustration provides us with a glimpse into the world of sports during this period when cricket was gaining popularity across Europe. The inclusion of German text within the advert suggests that Gunn's fame extended beyond British shores, highlighting his international recognition as a skilled cricketer. It is fascinating to observe how advertising transcended borders even during this era. Overall, this beautifully crafted engraving offers viewers a window into both history and sport.
