EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the intense focus and determination of Leicestershire cricketer, A. Lorrimer, during a match in 1947. The image, taken at a time when cricket was in the midst of its golden age, transports us back to an era of passion and skill in the world of sport. Lorrimer, with his stern gaze and clenched fist, embodies the spirit of competition that defined the game during this period. His crisp white uniform, adorned with the Leicestershire crest, stands out against the lush, green grass of the cricket field. The crowd in the background, a sea of hats and coats, adds to the nostalgic charm of the scene. The year 1947 was a significant one in the history of cricket, as it marked the end of the war years and the beginning of a new era. The game, which had been put on hold due to the conflict, was once again able to captivate the hearts and minds of the British public. Lorrimer, born in 1859, was a veteran of the game, having made his debut for Leicestershire in 1882. His long and illustrious career spanned over six decades, making him a living link to the rich history of cricket. This photograph, a testament to his enduring passion for the sport, is a reminder of the deep-rooted traditions and values that continue to define cricket to this day. The intricate details of the photograph, from the creases in Lorrimer's trousers to the individual blades of grass on the field, bring the scene to life and transport us back in time. This image is a must-have for any cricket enthusiast or history buff, offering a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the enduring appeal of this beloved sport.
