EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a historic moment in international football history as Albert, Duke of York, the future King George VI of England, extends a warm handshake to members of the Scottish football team before the commencement of the England vs. Scotland match at Hampden Park in Glasgow, 1935. The 30s, also known as the thirties or the 1930s, was an era of significant change and tension, both politically and socially. Yet, amidst the uncertainty, the passion for sports, particularly football, remained unwavering. The Duke of York, who would later ascend to the throne in 1936, is depicted in this image in a friendly and approachable manner, emphasizing the spirit of sportsmanship and camaraderie. The Scottish team, dressed in their iconic blue and white stripes, stands proudly behind him, reflecting the national pride and enthusiasm for the game. Hampden Park, the iconic stadium in Glasgow, serves as the backdrop for this memorable scene. The venue, which has hosted numerous international and domestic matches since its opening in 1903, continues to be a symbol of Scottish football heritage. This photograph, taken in 1935, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the enduring appeal of football and the unity it brings, even during challenging times. The Duke of York's handshake not only symbolizes the beginning of the match but also serves as a reminder of the shared love for the beautiful game that transcends borders and unites people.
