EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving from 1875 offers a fascinating glimpse into the interior of Messrs. Asser and Sherwins Archery and Cricket Repository in London. The image showcases the store's dedication to two beloved sports - archery and cricket - which were incredibly popular during the late 19th century.
As we peer into this historical scene, we can almost imagine the excitement and passion that must have filled this bustling store on the Strand. The necessity of having a specialized establishment devoted solely to these sports speaks volumes about their import and significance at that time.
The meticulous detail captured in this engraving allows us to appreciate not only the physical layout of the repository but also the cultural importance placed on archery and cricket during this period. It serves as a reminder of how deeply ingrained these sporting traditions were in society, shaping leisure activities and social interactions alike.
Through this snapshot of history, we are transported back to a time when archery targets lined one side of the room while cricket bats stood proudly on display nearby. This image is a testament to the enduring popularity and legacy of these timeless sports, preserved for generations to come thanks to prints like these from Mary Evans Prints Online.
