Ian McLauchlan Scottish and British Lions player.
Prop (1969-1979)
" Mighty MouseO was a relative late arrival on the international scene but after making his debut against England in 1969 he became a fixture in the national side for the next ten years, eventually becoming the oldest player ever to represent Scotland.
An inspiring leader, McLauchlanOs courage and tenacity were legendary Ð more so after he played in the 1973 Calcutta Cup match despite having broken a bone in his leg only two weeks earlier against Ireland.
It was as a scrummager that McLaughlanOs greatest talent lay Ð Gordon Brown considered him the best prop that he played behind, in part because he transmitted the lockOs drive the most effectively by burrowing himself under his opponent Ð but he was also a fantastic player in open play.

EDITORS COMMENTS
The print captures the iconic Ian McLauchlan, a Scottish and British Lions player who dominated the rugby scene as a prop from 1969 to 1979. Affectionately known as "Mighty Mouse". McLauchlan's journey to international stardom was a remarkable one. Despite his late arrival on the scene, he quickly established himself as an integral part of the national side for an impressive ten years. Renowned for his inspiring leadership qualities, McLauchlan's courage and tenacity were legendary. This was exemplified in the 1973 Calcutta Cup match when he defied all odds by playing with a broken leg sustained just two weeks prior against Ireland. While his scrummaging skills were unparalleled, it was not only in set pieces that McLauchlan excelled. His ability to contribute effectively in open play made him a truly exceptional player. The photograph showcases McLauchlan during the 1971 Lions tour, where he undoubtedly left an indelible mark on rugby history. With a beaming smile and dressed in his track suit, this portrait encapsulates both his passion for the sport and his dedication to representing Scotland and British Lions at their best. This Memory Lane Prints image is not just about commercial use; it serves as a testament to one man's unwavering commitment and contribution to rugby union during the vibrant era of the 1970s.
