EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1931 FA Cup Final at Wembley Stadium, we are transported back in time to witness a moment of great significance. The image captures West Bromwich Albion's captain, Tommy Glidden, introducing his teammates to none other than the Duke of Gloucester before the highly anticipated match against Birmingham City. The atmosphere is palpable as these football legends stand side by side, ready to showcase their skills on the grand stage. A sense of camaraderie and respect fills the air as hands are extended for a firm handshake between royalty and athletes. This historic Midlands derby holds immense importance for both teams, with victory hanging in the balance. As they line up alongside each other, you can almost feel the tension building within each player. The photograph not only immortalizes this iconic moment but also serves as a testament to an era long gone – a glimpse into football history during the early 20th century. It reminds us of how sports have always had the power to bring people together across social classes and backgrounds. As we admire this remarkable piece of sporting heritage captured by Mirrorpix's Memory Lane Prints collection, let us remember that it represents more than just a game; it symbolizes unity, passion, and pride that transcends time itself.
