EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the historic Germantown Cricket Club Grounds in Manheim, Philadelphia. Taken by an American photographer in the 19th century, this image showcases a significant piece of Philadelphia's history. The grounds were featured as an illustration in the book "Fifty Glimpses of Philadelphia and Vicinity" published by Rand McNally in 1898. The photo depicts various buildings within the club grounds, including the main clubhouse, ladies' clubhouse, and junior clubhouse. A grandstand can also be seen, suggesting that this was a popular spot for spectators to enjoy cricket matches during that time period. Germantown Cricket Club has played a vital role in promoting sportsmanship and camaraderie since its establishment. This image provides us with a glimpse into the past when cricket was highly regarded as one of America's favorite pastimes. The photograph not only represents a specific moment in history but also symbolizes unity among Americans who gathered here to enjoy their shared love for sports. It serves as a reminder of how important recreational activities have always been to communities across America. Preserved within this private collection, this print offers viewers an opportunity to connect with Philadelphia's rich heritage while appreciating the beauty captured through the lens of an anonymous 19th-century photographer.
