EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a fascinating piece of history - skating diagrams and well-known skaters from the 20th century. The image is part of a private collection, showcasing its rarity and value. The photograph was taken by an English photographer, whose name unfortunately remains unknown. It features illustrations that were originally created for The Harmsworth Encyclopaedia in approximately 1922. These detailed diagrams depict various skating techniques such as forward and backward movements, turning, serpentine figures, and even the famous "Pigs' Ears" loop. Among the skaters showcased in this image are Mount Charles, Fixture Roller Skate Company's renowned figure skater; G Strickson from Littleport who waltzed gracefully on his skates; A. E Tebbit with his impressive skills; F. W Ulit displaying elegance on ice; S Stebbutt mastering intricate moves at Lingay Fen. This historical photograph not only provides insight into early 20th-century knowledge about skating but also serves as a reminder of the artistry involved in this beloved winter sport. Whether you're an avid fan or simply appreciate history captured through photography, this print offers a glimpse into the world of figure skating during its formative years.
