EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph print, hailing from the archives of Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to the bustling scene at Edgbaston, Birmingham, the esteemed home of Warwickshire County Cricket Club in 1888. The image, titled "Sketches at the County Ground, Edgbaston, Birmingham," showcases the main pavilion at the heart of the frame, surrounded by a lively crowd and an assembly of notable players. The grand pavilion, a testament to the era's architectural elegance, stands proudly amidst the vibrant atmosphere. Surrounding the pavilion, a sea of boater-wearing spectators eagerly await the action, their faces filled with anticipation and excitement. Among the crowd, one can spot the great W.G. Grace, the legendary cricketer, who is being greeted warmly - or perhaps a little too enthusiastically - by the crowd. The scene appears to border on mobbing, with fans reaching out to touch and shake hands with the cricket icon. Notable Warwickshire players of the time, such as Will I Am Ansell, Tom Shilton, Gilbert Maul, and others, can be seen in the background, engaged in animated discussions or preparing for the match. The boundary ropes are visible in the distance, signaling the imminent start of play. This photograph not only encapsulates the spirit of the game but also offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich history of Warwickshire County Cricket Club and the sporting culture of Birmingham during the late 19th century.
