Our Ash Hunters Down Under - The MCC Tourists, as Seen by an Australian Artist
EDITORS COMMENTS
- Kerwin Maegraith, 1925 This delightful caricature print captures the essence of the 1925 English cricket team's tour of Australia, as humorously depicted by the Australian artist, Kerwin Maegraith. The team, led by captain Gilligan, includes prominent figures such as Tate, Bryan, Whysall, Hendren, Hobbs, Woolley, Sutcliffe, Kilner, Tyldesley, Freeman, Sandham, Chapman, Strudwick, Douglas, Hearne, and Howell. Manager Mr. Toone is also shown in the image. Maegraith, an Australian illustrator, author, songwriter, and broadcaster, masterfully captures the personalities and quirks of each player in this humorous artwork. The title "Our Ash Hunters Down Under" is a playful reference to the Ashes series, a highly competitive cricket rivalry between England and Australia. The term "Ash Hunters" refers to the English team's quest to regain the Ashes urn, which had been won by Australia in the previous series. The print showcases the camaraderie and lightheartedness of the cricket world during the 1920s. The players are depicted in various poses, some in mid-action, while others are shown engaging in more relaxed moments. The artwork is a testament to Maegraith's artistic talent and his ability to capture the spirit of the game. This print is a must-have for any cricket enthusiast or collector of vintage sports memorabilia. Kerwin Maegraith's artwork is a unique and charming representation of the English cricket team's tour of Australia in 1925. The print is a reminder of the rich history and tradition of cricket, as well as the enduring rivalry between England and Australia. This artwork is a valuable addition to any collection and a testament to the timeless appeal of the game.
