EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the golden era of cricket in the 1920s. The image captures a historic match between Kent and Surrey on the 23rd of July, 1923. As the crowd eagerly awaits an exhilarating showdown, two legendary figures emerge from the pavilion - Jack Hobbs on the left and Andrew Sandham by his side. Their confident strides exude determination as they prepare to open the batting for Surrey. Hobbs, known as "The Master" was widely regarded as one of England's greatest batsmen ever. Sandham, equally talented and respected in his own right, would later become famous for being the first cricketer to score a triple century in Test matches. This photograph not only freezes a momentous occasion but also encapsulates an entire era when cricket held a special place in people's hearts. It symbolizes sportsmanship, camaraderie, and unwavering passion that defined these players' careers. As we gaze upon this remarkable snapshot today, it serves as a reminder of how far cricket has come while honoring its rich history. This print is more than just an image; it is a gateway into reliving those thrilling moments that shaped sporting culture forever.
