EDITORS COMMENTS
Alun Lewis, the talented rugby player from London Welsh, is set to make history as he joins the prestigious British Lions party in Auckland. In this print captured in August 1977, Lewis can be seen departing for his journey to New Zealand, becoming the 18th Welsh player to don the iconic red jersey. His inclusion comes as a replacement for scrum half Brynmor Williams, showcasing his exceptional skills and earning him a well-deserved spot among the best players of his time. The image exudes an aura of excitement and anticipation as Lewis stands tall with his luggage by his side. The snapshot perfectly encapsulates the spirit of travel and adventure that accompanies being part of such an esteemed team. With determination etched on his face, it is evident that Lewis is ready to embrace this incredible opportunity and leave a lasting mark on rugby history. This photograph not only captures a significant moment in Welsh rugby but also represents an era when sportsmanship was at its peak. It serves as a nostalgic reminder of the vibrant sporting culture that thrived during the 1970s – where dedication and passion were paramount. As we delve into our Memory Lane Prints collection, this remarkable image reminds us of Alun Lewis' indelible contribution to both Welsh rugby and British Lions folklore.
