EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of George Lohmann, a legendary cricketer who graced the Surrey County Cricket Club in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Taken in the year 1901, this image freezes a moment in time as Lohmann, with a determined expression on his face, holds a cricket bat in his right hand, ready for the next delivery. The image is a testament to Lohmann's unwavering dedication and skill on the cricket field. Born in Alton, Hampshire, in 1865, Lohmann began his cricket career in 1885, playing for Hampshire. However, it was his move to Surrey in 1891 that brought him to the forefront of English cricket. Lohmann was a versatile all-rounder, known for his powerful batting and accurate bowling. He was a key member of the Surrey team that dominated English cricket during the late 19th century, winning the County Championship five times between 1893 and 1897. Lohmann's impact on the game went beyond his performances on the field. He was an innovator, introducing several new techniques, such as the use of a rubber ball instead of the traditional cork one, and the use of a lighter bat. Lohmann's influence extended to the administrative side of the game as well, serving as the President of the Marylebone Cricket Club from 1911 to 1913. This photograph is a precious piece of cricket history, offering a glimpse into the past and reminding us of the rich heritage of the game. It is a must-have for any cricket enthusiast or history buff, providing a tangible connection to the past and a reminder of the greats who have come before us.
