EDITORS COMMENTS
Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News, 1928. In this supplement cover from the Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News, published in 1928, the allure of summer sports on the European continent is brought to life. The image transports us back to the Roaring Twenties, an era of glamour, adventure, and the pursuit of athletic excellence. A young woman, elegantly dressed in a tennis outfit, gazes across the Channel with a sense of longing and excitement. Her tennis racket rests casually at her side, a testament to her passion for the game. Her companion, a golfer, stands more contemplatively, deep in thought as he contemplates his next move. The serene beauty of the coastline and the vast expanse of the sea serve as a breathtaking backdrop to their sporting escapade. The European continent, with its rich cultural heritage and diverse sporting possibilities, beckoned travelers from all corners of the world. The Illustrated Sporting and Dramatic News, a leading publication of the time, recognized the appeal of these summer sports destinations and offered its readers a glimpse into the world of tennis and golf on the continent. This evocative image, with its timeless charm and nostalgic appeal, invites us to imagine the thrill of a transatlantic journey to Europe for the promise of sun-soaked tennis courts and picturesque golf courses. The spirit of adventure and the allure of summer sports continue to captivate us today, reminding us of the enduring appeal of travel and the joy of athletic pursuits.
