's inside-left, Jessop is captured in an unexpected setting - hard at work as a pipe loader at Stoneware Ltd in Dosthill near Tamworth. This image beautifully encapsulates the spirit of the era, with its juxtaposition of sport and industry. As football fans cheered for their beloved team on weekends, players like Jessop demonstrated their resilience by engaging in honest labor during weekdays. It serves as a reminder that even sporting heroes had to roll up their sleeves and contribute to society beyond the football pitch.
