EDITORS COMMENTS
This photographic postcard transports us back in time to the idyllic setting of an Oxford cricket match in 1905. The team members, dressed in the traditional cricket attire of the era, exude a sense of camaraderie and elegance. The cricketers don patterned blazers, straw boater hats, flannel whites, and boots, adding to the vintage charm of the scene. But the standout individual in this photograph is undoubtedly the umpire, located on the left side of the image. His heavy umpire's coat and large, white floppy hat conceal an intriguing secret. Upon closer inspection, it becomes clear that the umpire bears an uncanny resemblance to the famous Mexican revolutionary leader, Pancho Villa. The exaggerated mustache, the intense gaze, and the overall demeanor all point to this intriguing disguise. Despite the umpire's hidden identity, the focus remains on the spirited cricket match unfolding before us. The pads, wickets, and bats are all set up, ready for the next play. The team members, poised and focused, embody the spirit of the game. This photograph is a testament to the rich history of cricket in Oxford and the enduring allure of this classic English pastime.
