1. Title: "A Jolly Afternoon at the County of London Rifle Shooting Championship, Circa 1930" In this photograph from the 1930s, a lively scene unfolds at the County of London Rifle Shooting Championship. The competition, held at Bisley Rifle Grounds, was a highly anticipated event for gentlemen sports enthusiasts. The blackboard in the foreground displays the results of the day's shooting, with names and scores proudly listed. The atmosphere is jovial and light-hearted, as competitors, dressed in their Sunday best, exchange stories and share their experiences from the range. The camaraderie is palpable, as these chaps, with their serious expressions during competition, now let their guard down and laugh amongst friends. The County of London Rifle Shooting Championship was an essential part of the British shooting scene in the 1930s. The sport of rifle shooting was a popular pastime for many, and competitions like this one brought together men from all walks of life. The thrill of the competition and the camaraderie it fostered made for an unforgettable day out. As the sun begins to set on the Bisley Rifle Grounds, the gentlemen pack up their gear, already looking forward to the next competition. The echoes of their laughter and the memories of the day's events will stay with them long after they've left the grounds. This photograph is a testament to the enduring spirit of sportsmanship and friendship that defined the County of London Rifle Shooting Championship in the 1930s.
