EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative illustration from 1837, Fuller Pilch (1804-1870) is depicted in the midst of a cricket match for Kent against Sussex. Pilch, one of the best players of his day, had been a key member of the Kent team since 1835, when he became the first cricketer to be paid a substantial sum of 100 pounds per year to play for Town Malling, the strongest team in the county. The handsome sum reflected Pilch's exceptional skills and importance to the team. The image captures Pilch in his prime, poised at the crease with a confident stance and a determined look on his face. Top hats were a fashionable accessory for cricket matches during this era, and Pilch is no exception, adding an air of elegance and sophistication to the scene. The year is 1837, a time when cricket was rapidly gaining popularity and the game was still in its infancy. Fuller Pilch's impact on the history of cricket cannot be overstated. He was a pioneer in the professionalization of the game and his influence extended beyond Kent, as he was also an important figure in the formation of the Marylebone Cricket Club in 1831. Pilch's legacy continues to be celebrated in the annals of cricket history, and this illustration serves as a reminder of his significant contributions to the sport. The illustration is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a window into the world of cricket in the 19th century. It is a testament to the enduring appeal of the game and the rich history that surrounds it. This image, from the extensive collection of historical prints available at Mary Evans Prints Online, is a must-have for any cricket enthusiast or history buff.
