EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1970s, where we catch a glimpse of England's football stars on their way to Malta. The image captures three iconic players - Alan Mullery, Martin Chivers, and Martin Peters - engrossed in a friendly card game aboard the plane. The camaraderie between these talented athletes is evident as they engage in some lighthearted competition while soaring through the skies. Their relaxed expressions and smiles reveal a sense of unity and friendship amongst teammates who were about to embark on an important journey. This snapshot not only showcases the lighter side of professional football but also provides us with a rare behind-the-scenes glimpse into the lives of these sporting heroes during their travels. As they prepare for an upcoming match against Malta, it is clear that even amidst their rigorous training schedules and high-stakes games, these players find moments to unwind and enjoy each other's company. The vintage aesthetic adds charm to this remarkable photograph, transporting us back in time when air travel was still considered glamorous. It serves as a reminder that beyond their exceptional skills on the field, these athletes were ordinary individuals who shared common interests like any group of friends would. With its nostalgic appeal and rich historical context, this print beautifully encapsulates both the spirit of sport and the bonds forged among teammates during one unforgettable moment in English football history.
