EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 1930s in Cornwall, where a lively Cornish wrestling match is about to unfold. The scene showcases a field transformed into an impromptu arena, with cars parked haphazardly around the perimeter. The registration number RL-9006 stands out prominently on one of the vehicles, providing us with a clue that this snapshot was taken no earlier than November 1924. The atmosphere is charged with anticipation as spectators gather around the makeshift ring, eagerly awaiting the display of skill and strength from their favorite wrestlers. Cornish wrestling, deeply rooted in tradition and heritage, has long been cherished by locals as both a sport and form of entertainment. Amongst the crowd stands Francis Gregory, believed to be one of the wrestlers featured in this photograph. With his muscular build and determined expression, he embodies the spirit of Cornish wrasslin'. Sticks can be seen scattered across the ground nearby - perhaps used during training or part of some ritualistic aspect associated with this ancient sport. Preserved within Royal Cornwall Museum's D. C. Vosper collection, this image captures not only a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Cornwall's rich cultural history. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded of how sports like Cornish wrestling have shaped communities for generations – bringing people together through competition and camaraderie while honoring age-old traditions passed down through centuries.
