EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage print captures a moment in cricket history at Edgbaston, the home of Warwickshire County Cricket Club in 1965. The image showcases a drying machine on the pitch, highlighting the dedication and hard work that goes into maintaining a pristine playing surface for cricketers.
The sight of this machine on the field is a reminder of the unpredictable nature of British weather and how crucial it is to have tools like these to ensure matches can go ahead as planned. It also serves as a testament to the passion and commitment of those involved in county cricket, who are willing to put in long hours behind the scenes to make sure everything runs smoothly.
The players may be absent from this particular shot, but their presence is felt through the equipment left out on display. This photograph offers a glimpse into the world of cricket during this era, capturing not just the physical landscape of Edgbaston but also hinting at the camaraderie and teamwork that defines this beloved sport.
As part of The Northcliffe Collection by Douglas Hess, this image stands as a timeless tribute to cricket's rich heritage and traditions. It serves as a poignant reminder of how far the sport has come while honoring its roots in county cricket history.
