EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of the Lancashire County Rugby Team from the 1890s. This vintage photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a glimpse into the rich history of rugby in Lancashire during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. The team, dressed in their traditional rugby attire, exudes a sense of camaraderie and determination. Each player is focused and ready for action, their expressions conveying a fierce dedication to the sport they love. The image captures the essence of the game during this period, with its rough and tumble nature, and the importance of teamwork and physical prowess. Rugby had been gaining popularity in Lancashire since the late 1800s, and the formation of the Lancashire County Rugby Union in 1878 marked a significant milestone in the development of the sport in the region. This photograph provides a unique insight into the team that represented the county during the 1890s, a time when the game was still very much in its infancy. The image is believed to have been captured as a lantern slide, a popular form of entertainment during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Lantern slides were used in magic lanterns, an early form of projector, to create moving images for educational and entertainment purposes. This photograph would have been projected onto a screen, allowing audiences to enjoy the image in the comfort of their own homes. Today, this photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history of rugby in Lancashire and the important role that the Lancashire County Rugby Team played in the development of the sport during the Victorian and Edwardian eras. It is a fascinating snapshot of a bygone era, and a must-have for any rugby or sports history enthusiast.
