EDITORS COMMENTS
Mrs Arundel Kempton, a prominent figure in high society, shares a delightful moment with the legendary greyhound champion, Mick the Miller, and two of his adorable puppies. This photograph, taken during the late 1920s and 1930s, showcases the unexpected camaraderie between the elegant Mrs Kempton and the rough-and-tumble world of greyhound racing. Greyhound racing experienced a surge in popularity during this era, transcending social classes and captivating the hearts of both the working masses and the upper crust. Society ladies, including Mrs Kempton, became avid fans and active participants, owning greyhounds and hosting dinner parties and social events at the burgeoning racetracks that dotted the countryside. Mick the Miller, a champion greyhound trainer and owner, was a household name in the sport. His greyhounds, renowned for their speed and agility, brought him great success and acclaim. In this photograph, the warm connection between Mrs Kempton and Mick, as well as the playful antics of the puppies, underscores the enduring appeal of greyhound racing and the unexpected friendships it fostered across the social divide.
