Gezira Sporting Club is the largest multi-sport facility in Egypt. It was founded in 1882 and was originally called Khedivial Sporting Club. Both of these programs are annotated in pencil by an unknown spectator - "all that didn't run have a heavy black mark. All that won have a light one and are marked 1, 2, or 3, as the call may be." As stipulated on the rear of each program, pari mutuel betting was the order of the day.
