EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the roaring twenties with this image of a glamorous young woman and her champion greyhounds at a bustling greyhound racing stadium. Dressed in a vibrant yellow dress and hat, she exudes elegance and sophistication as she gracefully walks her dogs around the track, preparing them for an upcoming race. The year is 1927, and the first greyhound stadium has recently opened in London, marking the beginning of a new era for this popular sport. The energy and excitement of the crowd can be felt in the grandstands, filled with onlookers dressed in their finest attire, eagerly anticipating the thrilling race ahead. The greyhounds, powerful and focused, are a sight to behold, their sleek bodies poised and ready to take on the competition. This photograph not only captures the essence of the fashionable twenties but also highlights the unique blend of high society and working-class culture that greyhound racing represented. The sport quickly gained popularity at all levels of society, bringing people together in a shared love for the thrill of the race and the beauty of the animals. As we gaze at this historical image, we are transported back in time, experiencing the magic of a bygone era. The roar of the crowd, the scent of popcorn, and the anticipation of the race all come alive in this moment, frozen in time by the skilled hand of photographer Harry Woolley.
