EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, taken on 8 September 1922 during the Braemar Gathering in Scotland, we witness the remarkable strength and tradition of Sandy Macintosh. At the age of 72, Sandy fearlessly tosses the caber with an impressive display of power and determination. Dressed in a traditional kilt that proudly represents his Scottish heritage, Sandy's rugged appearance is accentuated by his magnificent beard and mustache. His weathered face tells a story of wisdom gained through years of experience. This monochrome image captures not only Sandy's physical prowess but also highlights the enduring spirit of Scottish culture. The Braemar Gathering has long been celebrated as one of Europe's most prestigious sporting events, showcasing traditional games passed down through generations. As we gaze upon this photograph from Central News' archives, we are transported back to a time when strength was measured not only by muscle but also by character and resilience. It serves as a reminder that age should never be seen as a barrier to achieving greatness or participating in cherished traditions. Through this stunning piece of Europeana photography, we can appreciate both the artistry behind capturing such moments and the timeless allure they hold for future generations.
