EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph captured by E. Bacon, we are transported back to the vibrant summer of June 1928 in Tottenham, London. The image showcases a momentous occasion - the grand opening of a new sports ground, celebrated with great pomp and splendor. Two distinguished gentlemen stand proudly before an awe-inspiring sight: a colossal ball adorned with the words "Daily Mail" symbolizing both the power of journalism and the spirit of sporting excellence. The sheer scale of this magnificent ball dominates the frame, its inscriptions serving as a testament to the influential role that newspapers played in shaping public opinion during that era. As we gaze upon this historic scene frozen in time, one can almost feel the palpable excitement and anticipation buzzing through the air. The landscape format allows us to appreciate not only the impressive size of this remarkable structure but also provides context for its surroundings. We catch glimpses of eager spectators eagerly awaiting their turn to witness thrilling athletic competitions within these newly inaugurated grounds. Evidently, sport has always held a special place in society's heart; it unites communities while fostering healthy competition and camaraderie among individuals from all walks of life. This timeless photograph serves as an enduring reminder that even decades ago, people were drawn together by their shared love for sportsmanship and fair play.
