EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exhilarating moment of triumph at the London Brighton relay race in 1937. The image showcases D Brickwood, a member of Mitcham athletic club, being joyfully chaired by his teammates after crossing the finish line. It was an intense competition that saw Brookwood narrowly clinching victory by a mere second ahead of A Allum from Belgrave Harriers. The grueling race covered an impressive distance of nearly 46 miles, testing the endurance and determination of all participants. Despite facing fierce competition, Mitcham's relentless efforts paid off as they emerged as champions with a remarkable coast time of three hours, fifty-two minutes, and five seconds.
