EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the multifaceted life of Assistant Chief Officer Alfie S. Shawyer of the London Fire Brigade during the 1930s and 1940s. Known for his prowess in the boxing ring, Shawyer made history as a British Amateur Champion and the winner of the prestigious Golden Gloves of America. In this image, Shawyer is seen in the midst of his rigorous training regimen, his golden boxing gloves resting on the mat beside him. The fire station's red brick walls serve as a stark contrast to the gleaming gold of his prized gloves, a testament to the juxtaposition of his dual roles as a senior fire officer and a celebrated sportsman. The firefighter, with his toned physique and focused expression, touches the toes of his training shoes, preparing for the next round of exercises. His trainer, likely a fellow firefighter, looks on intently, ready to offer guidance and encouragement. The fire station's firemen watch from the background, their curiosity piqued by the presence of a boxing champion among their ranks. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into Shawyer's life, showcasing his dedication to both his firefighting duties and his passion for boxing. The 1938 image, taken during the 1930s, stands as a testament to Shawyer's resilience and versatility, making it an invaluable addition to any collection of London Fire Brigade history or sports memorabilia.
