Nicholson’s woodcuts were hand cut by him on the blocks. the first impressions were then hand-printed in black ink onto sheets of thin India paper mounted onto stiff card backing sheets. The prints were then coloured each by hand by him in water-colour. The prints were signed in black ink on the backing sheets. Following these impressions the image was transferred to a lithographic stone and the popular edition "Almanach of Twelve Sports" printed, with lithographic colours and no signature.
