EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, sourced from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to an Edwardian rugby match in the early 1900s. The image features Edwin Fenner (1878-1955), a prominent figure in the world of rugby during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. Fenner is seen here in the prime of his athletic career, holding a lantern in one hand and a rugby ball under his arm. The lantern, a common sight during evening training sessions, adds an intriguing element to the image, emphasizing the dedication and perseverance of the players. Edwin Fenner was a well-known rugby player from the city of Bristol, England. He began his rugby career with the Clifton Rugby Football Club and later went on to play for the prestigious Bristol Rugby Football Club. Fenner's impressive skills and determination on the field earned him a place in the English national team, where he represented his country in several international matches. The photograph showcases the rugged charm of the early rugby scene, with players dressed in heavy woolen jerseys and thick stockings. The image also highlights the camaraderie and team spirit that defined the sport during this era. Fenner's expression, a mix of determination and focus, encapsulates the spirit of competition and sportsmanship that continues to inspire rugby enthusiasts to this day. This photograph is an invaluable addition to any collection of vintage sports memorabilia or historical archives. It offers a unique glimpse into the past, providing us with a tangible connection to the rich history of rugby and the men who shaped its early years.
