EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from February 1950, we are transported back to the thrilling world of coursing at the Waterloo Cup. The image captures a moment of intense competition as J. Rimmer the Slipper, accompanied by his trusty greyhound Roving Minstrel, prepares for the final race against Scorpion, Lord Sefton's formidable entry. The atmosphere is electric with anticipation as spectators gather around the slips, eagerly awaiting the release of these magnificent dogs. Their sleek bodies quiver with excitement and determination, ready to chase down their elusive prey - a hare that will test their speed and agility. This snapshot not only showcases a popular outdoor leisure activity in the 1950s but also highlights the deep bond between man and dog. J. Rimmer's unwavering focus on his loyal companion speaks volumes about their shared passion for this sport. However, it is important to acknowledge that this image also raises questions about animal cruelty associated with coursing during that era. While it was undoubtedly an exhilarating spectacle for many, there were concerns regarding the treatment of hares used in such events. As we reflect upon this historical photograph captured by Mirrorpix on Memory Lane Prints, let us appreciate its significance in documenting our past while recognizing how societal values have evolved over time when it comes to our interactions with animals.
