EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a historic moment in English football history. It showcases the England team that faced Wales in the 1949 Home Championship, a match that took place on November 10th, 1948 at Villa Park, Birmingham. The photograph was taken the day before the game at the Raven Hotel in Droitwich Spa. What makes this image particularly special is that it marks a significant change for England's national team. For many decades prior to this occasion, they had never been photographed wearing their international caps. However, on this day, they proudly donned their iconic caps for the first time ever. The composition of the group is strikingly arranged with two rows of players and staff members posing together. In the back row from left to right are Leon Leuty, Laurie Scott, Johnny Aston, Walter Winterbottom (the manager), Frank Swift (the goalkeeper), Billy Wright, Tim Ward, and H. Bourne (the trainer). In front of them stand Stanley Matthews, Stan Mortensen, Jackie Milburn - all legends of English football - along with Len Shackleton and Tommy Finney. Cornelius Neil Franklin completes the lineup. This print not only immortalizes an important moment in sporting history but also serves as a reminder of how far English football has come since then.
