EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Eric Piper, we witness the legendary British boxer Henry Cooper beaming with pride as he showcases his third Lonsdale belt. The photograph takes us back to a significant moment in boxing history, precisely on the 20th of December 1967 at the esteemed Boxing Board of Control offices in London. Cooper's radiant smile and confident stance reflect the immense satisfaction and accomplishment that comes from years of dedication and hard work within the sport. The Lonsdale belt, an iconic symbol of excellence in British boxing, is proudly displayed around his waist, signifying his outstanding achievements inside the ring. Presenting him with this prestigious accolade is none other than Sir Onslow Fane, adding an extra touch of grandeur to this already remarkable occasion. Their presence together creates a powerful image that encapsulates both respect for tradition and admiration for Cooper's exceptional talent. This timeless snapshot not only captures a specific moment but also represents an entire era—the swinging sixties—where boxing held a special place in popular culture. It serves as a reminder of Cooper's indomitable spirit and unwavering determination that made him one of Britain's most beloved sports icons. Eric Piper has masterfully immortalized this historic event through his lens, allowing us to relive these glorious moments whenever we gaze upon this remarkable photograph from Memory Lane Prints.
