EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a rare and historic moment as King George V, the beloved monarch of England from 1865 to 1936, attends a baseball match at Stamford Bridge in London. The year was 1918, and the match was arranged in honor of the American allies during wartime.
In this image, King George V is seen sitting amongst his subjects, showing solidarity with the American people during a time of great international conflict. His presence at such an event demonstrates not only his support for the allied forces but also his commitment to fostering positive relations between nations.
The atmosphere at Stamford Bridge that day must have been electric, with spectators cheering on their favorite teams while basking in the presence of royalty. It is truly a snapshot of history frozen in time - a reminder of the unity and camaraderie that can be found even amidst turmoil and strife.
As we gaze upon this remarkable photograph published in "The Story of 25 Eventful Years in Pictures" in 1935, we are reminded of the power that sports have to bring people together across borders and cultures. And we are grateful for leaders like King George V who understood the importance of diplomacy through shared experiences like attending a simple baseball match.
