EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures a piece of cricketing history at Guildford Cricket Ground in Surrey, dating back to 1938. The scoreboard featured in the image is not just any ordinary scoreboard - it was described as "Scoreboard De Luxe" at the time.
What makes this scoreboard even more special is that its design was actually copied from the Sydney Cricket Ground in New South Wales, Australia. This unique connection between two cricketing venues on opposite sides of the world adds an extra layer of significance to this historical snapshot.
The photo showcases the setting for a Surrey vs. Hampshire County Cricket match, capturing a moment frozen in time when players and spectators alike would have been eagerly following every run and wicket displayed on this impressive scoreboard.
As we gaze upon this image today, we are reminded of the rich heritage and tradition of cricket, with each number and name on the board telling a story of past victories and defeats.
