EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we witness the meeting of two legends - Bob Hope and Eunice Rees. Bob Hope, renowned as a legendary American comedian and an ardent golf fanatic, graces the Brynhill club in Barry with his presence. The year is 1984, a time when Hope's fame knows no bounds. Eunice Rees, the widow of Welsh golfing great Dai Rees, stands beside him. Their encounter at the newly opened clubhouse holds a special significance as it brings together two individuals deeply connected to the world of golf. As they exchange words and smiles, one can only imagine the stories shared between them about their mutual love for this noble sport. But there is more to this meeting than just golf. For Bob Hope, visiting Barry also means revisiting his roots - the place where his mother and father once called home. This sentimental journey adds an extra layer of emotion to an already memorable occasion. Captured by Western Mail and Echo Copyright photographers in stunning monochrome tones, this photograph encapsulates not only a moment frozen in time but also pays tribute to these iconic figures who have left an indelible mark on comedy and sports history alike. As we gaze upon this remarkable image from Memory Lane Prints collection, we are reminded of how connections can be forged across borders through shared passions such as laughter and sport – truly transcending time itself.
