EDITORS COMMENTS
Stephen Donaghue, the dashing young jockey, graces the cover of the February 1926 issue of Picturegoer magazine. Donaghue was chosen as the star of a new series of short racing films produced by Gainsborough and directed by Walter West. These films were a groundbreaking innovation in the silent film era, bringing the excitement of the racetrack to cinemas across Britain. Donaghue, a native of Islington, London, was a rising star in the world of horse racing. His youthful energy and natural talent had already earned him several notable victories, making him a favorite among racing fans. At just 23 years old, he embodied the spirit of the 1920s, an age of jazz, youth, and vitality. The production of these films took place at Gainsborough's studios, where Donaghue and his horse were filmed in action on the racetrack. The films were shot in silent format, allowing audiences to fully immerse themselves in the thrill of the race without the distraction of dialogue. The collaboration between Donaghue, Gainsborough, and West marked the beginning of a successful partnership. The short racing films were a hit with audiences, and Donaghue's popularity continued to grow both on and off the screen. This cover image of Stephen Donaghue on Picturegoer magazine serves as a reminder of the rich history of British silent film and the enduring appeal of horse racing.
