EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph, sourced from The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us back in time to the late Victorian or early Edwardian era, as we witness Arthur Henfrey (1879-1955) in the prime of his football career. Henfrey, a distinguished figure in the world of football, is seen here holding a lantern slide projector, perhaps preparing to share memories of his athletic accomplishments with an eager audience. Born in Cambridge, England, Henfrey was a versatile player who excelled in both rugby and association football. He began his football career with the Corinthians, a legendary amateur team known for its elegant and creative style of play. Henfrey's skill and dedication earned him a place in the English national team, where he made his debut in 1902 against Scotland. The photograph's intricate details reveal Henfrey's smart attire, consisting of a collared shirt, tie, and blazer, which were typical of the era's sporting fashion. The lantern slide projector, a popular means of entertainment during this time, adds an interesting layer to the image, suggesting that Henfrey may have been a public speaker or a motivational figure in his community. This evocative image offers a unique glimpse into the past, allowing us to connect with the history of football and the life of an exceptional athlete like Arthur Henfrey. The photograph's timeless appeal and the stories it tells make it an invaluable addition to any collection of vintage sports memorabilia or historical records.
