EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Mervyn Berens, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of a football match day in the 1970s. Standing proudly outside the stadium, a passionate football supporter exudes an undeniable sense of loyalty and devotion towards his beloved team. Dressed head to toe in the vivid colors that represent his club, he becomes a living embodiment of their spirit. The year is 1972, and youth culture is at its peak. This young fan's fashion choices reflect the prevailing trends of the era - flares and long hair dominate his stylish ensemble. His carefully styled hairstyle adds an extra touch of rebelliousness to his overall look. As we gaze upon this photograph, it becomes evident that being part of a sports community transcends mere fandom; it becomes an integral part of one's identity. The anticipation and excitement radiating from this supporter's face serve as a testament to the unifying power that sports can have on individuals. Mervyn Berens has expertly captured not only a moment frozen in time but also encapsulated an entire generation's passion for both football and self-expression through fashion. This image serves as a reminder that beyond wins or losses lies something far more profound - camaraderie among fans who come together to celebrate their shared love for the beautiful game.
