EDITORS COMMENTS
Off to the Links 1927: A Moment of Farewell before an Afternoon of Gentlemen's Sport This evocative photograph, entitled "Off to the Links 1927," captures a moment of camaraderie and anticipation as two friends prepare to embark on a pleasant afternoon of golf. The smartly dressed gentleman in the foreground, pipe in hand and hat perched atop his head, bids his friend farewell before getting into his car. The image transports us back to a bygone era, when the simple pleasures of a day on the links were a cherished pastime for the well-heeled and well-bred. The year is 1927, a time when golf was becoming increasingly popular among the upper classes. The game's social and recreational appeal, combined with its reputation for promoting health and fitness, made it an ideal activity for gentlemen seeking a respite from the pressures of business and the rigors of daily life. The rolling greens and fairways of the links offered a gentle, picturesque backdrop for friendly competition and spirited camaraderie. As the gentleman in the photograph turns to leave, his friend waves him off with a warm smile and a nod of encouragement. The sun casts a golden glow over the landscape, promising a day filled with sunshine and fresh air. The car, with its sleek lines and gleaming finish, represents the height of automotive technology and sophistication, a fitting mode of transportation for a man about town. This photograph, taken from the Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a glimpse into the history of golf and the social customs of the past. It invites us to reflect on the enduring appeal of this timeless sport and the enduring bonds of friendship that have long been a part of its rich heritage.
