EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the 1920s, we witness a thrilling moment in cricket history as Kent takes on Surrey in the County Championship. The focus of the image is none other than the legendary Les Ames, representing Kent with his exceptional batting skills. Ames stands tall at the crease, his concentration evident as he prepares to face off against Surrey's formidable bowlers. His stance exudes confidence and determination, showcasing why he was one of the most revered cricketers of his time. As spectators watch eagerly from beyond the boundary ropes, Ames becomes a symbol of resilience and skill. The monochrome tones add an air of nostalgia to this photograph, transporting us back to an era between two world wars when cricket held immense significance for people seeking solace amidst uncertainty. This snapshot captures not only a sporting event but also reflects society's love affair with sportsmen who became heroes both on and off the field. This remarkable image is part of TopFoto. co. uk's collection that showcases Europeana photography from central news archives. It serves as a reminder that even in tumultuous times, sport has always played a vital role in bringing communities together and providing moments of joy and inspiration
