EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this vintage photograph of the Leicestershire County Football Team from the year 1895. This evocative image, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us to an era long past, filled with the spirit of camaraderie and athleticism that defined the early days of football in England. The photograph, reminiscent of a lantern slide, showcases the team in their Edwardian attire, donning collared shirts and high-waisted shorts. The players exude a sense of determination and focus, their gazes fixed on an unseen opponent. The team's captain, proudly holding the ball, stands at the center, his teammates arranged around him in a defensive formation. The setting of the photograph is simple yet evocative - a grassy field, dotted with trees, stretches out behind the team, framing them against the backdrop of a bygone era. The crisp, clean lines and high contrast of the image add to its timeless appeal, making it a must-have for any football or history enthusiast's collection. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the early days of football in Leicestershire, a time when the game was still in its infancy, and the passion and dedication of its players were the driving forces behind its growth. With its rich historical significance and captivating visual appeal, this photograph is a testament to the enduring allure of the beautiful game.
