EDITORS COMMENTS

Celebrating England's Triumph: The Illustrated London News Front Cover Commemorates the British Polo Team's Victory over America in the International Polo Trophy, 1914 The front cover of the Illustrated London News (ILN) from June 19, 1914, proudly displays a captivating image of England's triumphant polo team, who had recently defeated their American counterparts in the prestigious International Polo Trophy, also known as the Westchester Cup, at Meadowbrook. This thrilling victory marked the pinnacle of English polo, with the team consisting of Captain H. H. Tomkinson, Captain Leslie St. Clair Cheape, Captain F. W. Barrett, and Captain Vivian Lockett. Leslie St. Clair Cheape, a legendary figure in British polo, was hailed as England's greatest polo player. His exceptional talent and skill were showcased in the Westchester Cup matches of 1911, 1913, and 1914. Tragically, Cheape's life was cut short when he was killed on April 23, 1916, while commanding a squadron of the Worcestershire Yeomanry in Egypt during World War I. The image on the ILN cover captures the excitement and intensity of the polo match, with riders in their vibrant uniforms and horseback, poised for the next chukka. The crowd, filled with anticipation, watches intently from the sidelines. The ponies and horses, powerful and agile, reflect the strength and determination of both teams. This iconic photograph stands as a testament to the passion and dedication of the players and the enduring appeal of polo as a popular and historic sport. The ILN's front cover serves as a reminder of the rich history of polo and the fierce competition between England and America during this era. The image remains a cherished piece of sporting history, capturing the essence of a bygone era and the unwavering spirit of the game.
