EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Sugg Sports, King Street branch in Nottingham, Nottinghamshire back in 1960. The shop window proudly displays a wide range of sports goods, train sets, and television and audio equipment. Sugg Sports was established by the renowned sportsman Frank Howe Sugg in 1888 after his successful playing career came to an end. Known for achieving a Derbyshire double by playing first team games for both Derbyshire County Cricket Club and Derby County Football Club, Frank Howe Sugg later became an umpire before venturing into the business world. Sugg Sports quickly gained recognition as a leading supplier of football, cricket, and fishing equipment throughout its existence until it ceased trading in 2002. This photograph showcases not only the thriving retail industry during that era but also reflects the passion for sports that permeated British society at the time. The image captures a moment frozen in time on King Street's bustling avenue with its monochrome charm. It stands as a testament to Michael Walters' keen eye for detail as he skillfully captured this snapshot of history through his lens. Paul Walters Worldwide Photography Ltd has preserved this piece of heritage which allows us to appreciate how much has changed since then while honoring the legacy left behind by Frank Howe Sugg and his successful sporting empire.
