EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the excitement and anticipation of the FA Cup Final at Wembley Stadium in 1946. The image shows a notice board displaying all the tickets that have been sold for the highly-anticipated football match, with a sea of tickets covering the entire board. The tickets are arranged neatly in rows, each one representing a precious seat to witness the historic event. The boys in the foreground, huddled around the board, add a sense of scale and energy to the scene. The FA Cup Final was a significant event in British football history, especially after the disruptions caused by World War II. The 1940s, also known as the '40s or the Forties, were a time of austerity and hardship for the country. Yet, the FA Cup Final provided a much-needed distraction and a sense of normalcy for the people. The image of the sold-out tickets symbolizes the communal spirit and the collective excitement of the nation. The photograph, taken by renowned photographer Terry Parker, is a testament to the power of football to bring people together, even in the most challenging of times. The use of an easel to display the tickets adds a sense of importance and formality to the scene, making it a fitting representation of the grandeur and tradition associated with the FA Cup Final. The black and white image further enhances the nostalgic feel of the photograph, transporting us back to a time when football was more than just a game, it was a source of hope and unity for the nation.
