EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from September 1935, we are transported back in time to the Swan Hotel in Fittleworth, where a group of men proudly pose at the cricket ground. With their dapper attire and charming smiles, these individuals exude an air of camaraderie and sportsmanship that is truly timeless. Dressed in trilby hats and sporting crisp white shirts, these gentlemen epitomize the elegance and grace associated with cricket. The lush green field behind them serves as the perfect backdrop for their gathering, evoking a sense of tranquility amidst the excitement of the game. As we gaze upon this snapshot frozen in history, it becomes evident that more than just a sport was being played on that sunny day. These men were not merely teammates; they were friends united by their shared love for cricket. Their beaming expressions reflect not only their passion for the game but also the joy derived from each other's company. Preserved within West Sussex Record Office's George Garland Collection, this photograph offers us a glimpse into a bygone era when leisurely pursuits like cricket brought people together. It reminds us that even amidst challenging times such as those faced during 1935, moments of respite and connection could still be found. Let this image serve as a reminder to cherish both our sporting traditions and our human connections – two elements that have always held immense value throughout history.
