EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures the moment during a football match in 1928, as R. Turnbull of Clapton Orient takes a powerful kick against an opposing team. Turnbull, whose full name is Robert Turnbull, was a prominent player in English football during the inter-war period. He began his professional career with Arsenal in 1923, making his debut for the Gunners at the tender age of 18. After a successful stint with Arsenal, Turnbull went on to play for Charlton Athletic and Chelsea before joining Clapton Orient in 1928. Turnbull's footballing abilities were highly regarded, and he was known for his strength, speed, and accuracy. His tenure at Clapton Orient saw him score an impressive 30 goals in just 33 appearances, earning him the nickname 'The Clapton Comet.' This photograph is a testament to Turnbull's prowess on the pitch and his significant impact on the history of Clapton Orient. The photograph also provides a fascinating glimpse into the past of English football. The players are dressed in the traditional kit of the time, with Turnbull wearing the iconic Clapton Orient blue and white stripes. The photograph's historical significance is further emphasized by the absence of modern technology, such as floodlights or electronic scoreboards, which adds to the sense of nostalgia and authenticity. Turnbull's career spanned over a decade, and he went on to play for several other clubs, including Millwall, Southampton, and Leyton Orient, before retiring from professional football in 1938. This photograph, taken during his time at Clapton Orient, is a valuable historical record of a talented footballer and an important part of the rich history of English football.
