Following the remarkable and fascinating response to Julie Le-Moine’s enquiry last weekend about a mystery cricket team photo from Walsall Wood, Julie has been good enough to send me another image – this time, it’s her Grandfather Walter Hollender.
Julie asked:
Hell0 Bob!
I found this photo today – Grandad in his cricket whites. It’s become a bit faded over the years I’m afraid.
Maybe someone can identify where he is playing… I think it’s behind St. Johns Church in Walsall Wood?
Regards,
Julie
I’ve done my best to improve the quality of the image. Does it jog any memories?
While we’re about it, Peter ‘Pedro’ Cutler found these two newspaper repots relating to cricket in Walsall Wood:
Oh, and before some wag asks, and since I’ve already done Pearl & Dean today, Soul Limbo by Booker T and the MGs. You’re very welcome. I believe the batsman is Holding, the bowler’s Willey.
