EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, we are transported back to the historic 1978 FA Cup semi-final match between Arsenal and Leyton Orient. The image captures a moment of unity and tradition as the iconic Pearly King and Queen of London lead out the Orient team onto the hallowed grounds of Stamford Bridge. The Pearly Kings and Queens were renowned figures in London's East End, known for their distinctive outfits adorned with mother-of-pearl buttons. Their presence on that fateful day symbolizes not only local pride but also an unwavering support for Leyton Orient, who faced a formidable opponent in Arsenal. As we delve into this snapshot frozen in time, one can almost feel the electric atmosphere pulsating through the air. The crowd roars with anticipation while players prepare themselves mentally for battle. Amidst all this excitement, our attention is drawn to the regal figureheads leading their team forward. Their stoic expressions reveal determination etched upon their faces - a reflection of both personal resolve and collective spirit. It is evident that these individuals embody more than just football; they represent resilience, community strength, and an unyielding love for their beloved club. This print by Colorsport / Stewart Fraser serves as a poignant reminder of how sport has always been intertwined with cultural heritage. It encapsulates a significant chapter in Leyton Orient's history while paying homage to London's vibrant traditions. As we gaze upon it today, we are reminded once again that football holds within its grasp
