EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant era of 1960s football as two rival teams unite in celebration. The legendary George Best of Manchester United takes on an unexpected role as the best man for the wedding of Manchester City's own star player, Mike Summerbee. Captured at St. Michaels and All Angels Church in Mottram during September 1968, this image beautifully encapsulates the spirit of camaraderie that transcends fierce competition on the pitch. Dressed impeccably in a stylish suit befitting his status as one of football's greatest icons, Best stands proudly by Summerbee's side. The photograph not only showcases these sporting legends but also offers a glimpse into the fashion trends of the time. The sharp tailoring and classic elegance exuded by both men reflect the sartorial sensibilities prevalent during this iconic decade. This snapshot serves as a reminder that beyond their professional rivalry, players like George Best and Mike Summerbee shared personal connections and friendships off the field. It is a testament to their mutual respect and admiration for each other's talents. As we admire this remarkable piece of history frozen in time, let us appreciate how sport has always had an incredible power to bring people together - even those who may stand on opposite sides when it comes to club loyalties.
