EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Essex County Cricket Club in the early 20th century. The team is lined up proudly, showcasing a group of talented players who were known for their succession of speed bowlers. Founded in 1864 and admitted to the County Championship in 1895, Essex County CC has a rich history steeped in tradition.
The image shows the players posing for the camera, with names like J Cutmore, P Smith, and T Pearce (Captain) etched into cricketing folklore. The club gave up its permanent ground in 1934 but continued to attract interest from all corners by spreading their home fixtures throughout the county.
This Photocard issued by Ardath Tobacco in circa 1936 immortalizes a moment in time when cricket was more than just a game—it was a way of life for these dedicated athletes. As they stand shoulder to shoulder, ready to take on any challenge that comes their way, one can't help but feel inspired by their passion and determination.
Essex County CC may have evolved over the years, but this vintage photograph serves as a reminder of where it all began—a small club with big dreams that captured hearts and minds across England.
