EDITORS COMMENTS
: A Peek into the World of "The Winning Post" and a Bottle of Port in 1916 Step back in time to the roaring twenties of the early 20th century, where the thrill of horse racing and the allure of a good bottle of port came together in an unexpected yet delightful way. This image, published in "The Winning Post" in 1916, captures the essence of the sporting world's unique blend of excitement, humor, and camaraderie. At the heart of this scene is Roberts Sievier, the infamous editor of "The Winning Post," a publication known for its sharp wit, gossip, and scandals. With a mischievous glint in his eye, Sievier is depicted here, pen in hand, as he crafts another humorous piece for his readers. The cartoonish image in the newspaper he holds adds to the lighthearted atmosphere, while the bottle of port, nestled in a cozy corner, awaits his leisurely enjoyment. The lady in the foreground, engrossed in her racing form, represents the dedicated racegoer and punter, her intense focus a testament to the all-consuming nature of the sport. Her elegant attire and the sophisticated setting further underscore the glamour and elegance of the horse racing scene. As the sun sets on the racecourse, the day's events come to a close, leaving behind a sense of anticipation for the next race and the next issue of "The Winning Post." The combination of the lively publication and a bottle of port serves as a reminder that, in the world of horse racing, laughter, camaraderie, and the thrill of the chase are just as important as the race itself.
