EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph, taken in 1921, showcases a selection of cricket novelties that were set to be introduced the following season. The image, courtesy of the estate of Mrs. J.C. Robinson and Pollinger Ltd, was originally published in the Illustrated London News (ILN) and captured the attention of cricket enthusiasts with its intriguing depiction of innovative equipment designed to aid both fielders and batsmen. The scene is set on a lush cricket field, with the sun casting long shadows over the verdant grass. A group of cricketers, dressed in period attire, gather around a table, examining the novelty items with great interest. Among these novelties are a pair of oversized cricket pads, which appear to be designed to offer enhanced protection, and a peculiar-looking cricket bat adorned with a large, red pom-pom at its end. The purpose of this unusual addition is unclear, but it no doubt adds a touch of whimsy to the game. Another novelty item that stands out is a pair of cricket shoes with built-in roller skates. While these may have been intended as a joke, they certainly add an element of surprise and humor to the image. The cricketers' amused expressions suggest that they are considering the practicality and potential benefits of these unconventional items. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of cricket and the innovative spirit that drives the development of new equipment. Despite the passing of time, the spirit of cricket endures, and the game continues to evolve with new technologies and inventions.
