This is brilliant and a big time waster, especially for those interested in pedigrees. ALL Crufts schedules and catalogues are now online to view, from 1886 onwards! A few links don't work but the majority I have tried have done.  http://www.thekennelclub.org.uk/item/3158

They`re great arn`t they...and you`re right such a time waster lol....I think I sat there for a couple of hours until I realised my bum was numb and I had a crick in my neck from leaning towards the computer screen!

The old catalogues make great reading.... and I like the way they used to give you a little information about the breed before the entries were listed.

Wow, well done KC, and yes, what a timewaster!

Fantastic! I remember that even when I first started showing you could put a sale price for the dog - thankfully that's changed! Fascinating that in 1891 the ideal weight for a dalmatian was 50lb - 55lb! Most of today's oversized dals wouldn't be able to get down to that weight without RSPCA prosecution resulting.

Will be saving that for later when i'm really bored.... Fantastic to see this!!
Thanks Marianne

What an achievment to get all those on line. I was quite emotional when I saw my first Crufts (1981) my first showdog and he won both his classes. What a day!

Good job the Test Cricket is over as between this and that I would get no work done at all!
Thanks for the link!
