EDITORS COMMENTS
In this 19th-century print titled "Tossing for Innings" we are transported back to a bygone era of British cricket. The artist, Henry Dixon, skillfully captures the essence of this beloved sport that has long been ingrained in English culture. Set against a picturesque countryside backdrop, young boys gather together on a grassy field, their bare feet firmly planted as they engage in an age-old tradition. With anticipation and excitement filling the air, these spirited lads prepare to determine who will bat first through a game of tossing. Their eyes gaze upward towards the sky, perhaps seeking divine intervention or simply contemplating their next move. Clutching their cricket bats tightly and with arms outstretched, they eagerly await the outcome. Dixon's use of color adds vibrancy to the scene; each boy stands out amidst the lush green surroundings. This snapshot perfectly encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also represents an entire era when leisurely pastimes like cricket provided respite from daily life. This particular print is part of Imperial Cricket - a publication edited by P. F Warner and published by The London and Counties Press Association Ltd in 1912. It serves as both an homage to England's rich sporting heritage and as a testament to Dixon's artistic prowess. As we admire this image today, it reminds us of the enduring power that sports hold over our collective imagination throughout history.
