EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the 1960s and given a glimpse into the world of Stoke City Football Club. The image captures a training session on the 15th of August in 1962, showcasing the dedication and camaraderie among these talented athletes. Amidst the hustle and bustle of their intense practice, two figures stand out - Eddie Stuart and skipper Bobby Howitt. As they take a break from their rigorous routine, they sit down together for a light lunch. Their relaxed smiles convey not only their friendship but also their shared passion for football. Eddie Stuart, with his boyish charm evident in his expression, exudes an infectious enthusiasm that is mirrored by Bobby Howitt's more serious demeanor as he engages in conversation with his teammate. It is clear that beyond being exceptional players on the field, these men have formed a bond that extends beyond mere teamwork. The black-and-white aesthetic adds to the nostalgic feel of this photograph, transporting us to an era where football was played with grit and determination rather than flashy endorsements. This snapshot encapsulates both the physical demands of training sessions and moments of respite when friendships were forged amidst sweat-soaked jerseys. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece captured by Howard Walker, we are reminded not only of Stoke City's rich sporting history but also how sport can bring people together - forging connections that last long after retirement or final whistle blows.
