EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the bustling streets of Fulham, London in 1912. Standing outside the entrance to Stamford Bridge Stadium, home of Chelsea Football Club, we witness a vibrant scene filled with people, cars, and buses. The atmosphere is electric as football enthusiasts eagerly make their way towards the ground for an exhilarating match day experience. The cobblestone road adds a touch of nostalgia to this snapshot from the past. It reflects an era when transportation was still dominated by horse-drawn carriages alongside early motor cars. The monochrome aesthetic further enhances the sense of timelessness captured in this image. As we observe closely, it becomes evident that this street was not only a thoroughfare but also a meeting point for locals and visitors alike. Men in suits can be seen engaging in animated conversations while others rush past with purposeful strides. The Greater London Council's presence is felt through its iconic red buses navigating through the traffic-laden avenue. Preserved by Guildhall Library and Art Gallery, this photograph serves as a valuable historical artifact showcasing how sports brought communities together even over a century ago. It allows us to appreciate how much has changed since then while recognizing that some things remain constant - like our love for football and the energy it brings to city streets.
