Official programme for the Oxford v Cambridge Athletics match, held at Queen's Club on March 25th, 1911. The competitors included Philip Noel-Baker, who later became an MP and is the only man to win an Olympic medal and a Nobel Prize; and Harold Ashington, an incredibly versatile athlete and Olympian who was killed in action in 1917.

Single card folded four ways. Results recorded neatly in pencil. All previous winners of each event back to 1864 are listed.

Apart from this damage the programme is in very good condition.
