EDITORS COMMENTS
An iconic moment frozen in time - the captains of Manchester City and United meet at midfield, their hands clasped in a gesture of respect before the highly anticipated Derby on September 20th, 1947. Mr C Fletcher from Northwich stands tall as he officiates this historic match, donning an unconventional attire consisting of a jacket and shorts, along with a high neck shirt left unbuttoned and arms folded back. A pocket hankie peeks out from his pocket, adding a touch of elegance to his unique ensemble. City's captain Bert Sproston extends his hand towards United's Johnny Carey, symbolizing the camaraderie that exists between these fierce rivals off the pitch. The atmosphere is electric as fans eagerly await kickoff at Maine Road stadium. This print captures not only the spirit of football in the 1940s but also showcases the timeless tradition of sportsmanship displayed by these legendary players. Despite their intense rivalry on the field, moments like these remind us that mutual respect transcends competition. The final score may have been goalless that day, but this image serves as a lasting testament to the rich history and passion surrounding one of football's most storied rivalries. It encapsulates an era when football was played with grit and determination while maintaining an unwavering sense of fair play.
