EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the Rugby World Cup of 1987. The image captures a significant moment before the squad's departure, as Paul Thorburn stands flanked by his teammates Kevin Hopkins and Hugh Richards. As they prepare for their journey, Thorburn meticulously checks his supplies of footwear, ensuring he is fully equipped for the challenges that lie ahead. The photograph not only showcases the camaraderie between these players but also highlights their dedication and attention to detail. It serves as a reminder of the immense preparation required in international sports competitions during that era. This snapshot encapsulates the spirit of rugby union in the 1980s - a time when teams traveled across borders to represent their nations on an international stage. The kit worn by these athletes symbolizes national pride and unity, while also reflecting the evolution of rugby attire over time. As we admire this piece from Mirrorpix's collection, we are reminded of how sport has always been more than just a game; it unites people from different backgrounds and cultures under one common passion. This particular photograph transports us back to an era where travel was not just about reaching destinations but about embarking on journeys that would forever be etched in history.
