EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1930s, Sir Gordon Carter, the esteemed Clerk of Ascot Racecourse, is seen meticulously preparing for another day at the iconic British racing venue. The image, taken in the year 1930, captures Sir Gordon in his element, sitting at his desk adorned with an array of racing-related documents and papers. Sir Gordon's attire exudes an air of sophistication and professionalism, with a crisp white shirt, smart waistcoat, and a top hat resting on the table beside him. A pair of binoculars and a case are also within reach, hinting at his role in overseeing the races and ensuring fair play. The atmosphere in the room is focused and determined, with the clerk's unwavering gaze fixed on the papers before him. The presence of a calendar on the wall suggests that he is carefully planning the upcoming racing fixtures, a task that requires immense attention to detail and a deep understanding of the sport. The photograph also features a charming cartoon drawing of a tout, or racecourse bookmaker, named Peter Ronald Buchanan, who was a familiar figure during the 1930s racing scene. The drawing adds a touch of humor and lightness to the otherwise serious scene, highlighting the camaraderie and spirit that pervaded the world of horse racing during that era. Overall, this photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the world of Sir Gordon Carter, the dedicated and meticulous Clerk of Ascot Racecourse, as he goes about his work in the 1930s. The image captures the essence of the sport, with its combination of tradition, precision, and excitement.
