Gentlemen v Players, Scarborough 1931. Sepia real photograph postcard of the tea interval in the match played 5th- 8th September 1931 showing the players being served on the pitch with tea by a waiter and (obscured) waitress, players stood having a cigarette. David Denton is noted as one of the umpires, Jupp and Stevens also noted. Walker’s Studio postcard. Postally unused. Very good condition.
A very similar postcard was sold by Knights as Lot 810 in November 2023, in which the players are standing in different positions, the other umpire, George Hirst, is present, and the waitress in her pinafore is clearly visible.
