In this photo print, we are transported back to the 1952 cricket season, where three legendary figures of Warwickshire County Cricket Club stand proudly side by side. From left to right, we see R. E. Hitchcock, F. C. Gardner, and Horace Edgar Tom Dollery. Dollery's remarkable career is highlighted in this image as he played a significant role in shaping English first-class cricket history. Having represented England in four Tests between 1947 and 1950, he showcased his immense talent on the international stage. Not only was Dollery an exceptional cricketer but also one of the pioneering professional captains during that era. Under his leadership, Warwickshire clinched the coveted County Championships title in 1951 – a testament to his strategic prowess and ability to inspire his teammates. Interestingly enough, Dollery's sporting talents extended beyond cricket; he was once a promising junior football player for West Bromwich Albion. This extraordinary photograph holds even more significance as it captures a familial connection within the world of cricket: Dollery's grand-daughter Abi would later marry none other than Jonathan Trott – another distinguished cricketer who represented both Warwickshire and England with great distinction. Preserved by Colorsport Images and Wilkes Photography Studio, this timeless snapshot serves as a reminder of the rich heritage and enduring legacy that these iconic individuals have left behind in English cricket history.
