EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph print, titled "Middlesex Golf Club Secretaries" and dated 1932, showcases a lively and humorous caricature of seven golf club secretaries from various clubs in the Middlesex area by the renowned artist H. H. Harris. The secretaries depicted in this image include Major E. A. Proute of Northwick, Captain W. Taylor of Sudbury, Major Whitley Laverack M.C. of Northwood, C. Lance Gamble of Hadley Wood, Gilbert Jessop of Edgware, Captain G. Lawler of Stanmore, and P. Rodger of Pinner Hill. The secretaries are captured in a playful moment, engaged in a friendly foursome on the golf course. Each man is depicted with unique and exaggerated features, adding to the whimsical charm of the image. Major Proute, with his monocle and pipe, stands confidently with a golf club in hand. Captain Taylor, in a stylish plus-fours suit and straw boater, looks ready for a day on the green. Major Laverack, a decorated military man, is shown with a determined expression and a golf bag slung over his shoulder. C. Lance Gamble, with his bushy mustache and tweed jacket, appears thoughtful as he studies the golf ball. Gilbert Jessop, a well-known cricketer, is depicted in golfing attire, a golf club in one hand and a cigar in the other. Captain Lawler, with a serious expression and a golf bag at his feet, seems focused on the game. Lastly, P. Rodger, with his round spectacles and a pipe clenched between his teeth, is shown in a relaxed pose, leaning on his golf club. This photograph print offers a fascinating glimpse into the fashion and golfing culture of the 1930s. The secretaries' clothing, from their plus-fours suits to their straw boaters and golfing shoes, perfectly encapsulates the era's style. The caricatures by H. H. Harris add a delightful touch of humor and personality to this charming image.
