EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from Memory Lane Prints, we are transported back to the vibrant atmosphere of Edinburgh in 1973. The image captures two iconic figures, John Greig and Ken Buchanan, at the grand opening of The Lonsdale pub. John Greig, a legendary footballer known for his time with Rangers Football Club, stands tall and distinguished beside Ken Buchanan, a celebrated boxer who brought glory to Scotland in the ring. Their presence alone exudes an air of excitement and anticipation as they join forces to inaugurate this new establishment. The scene is alive with energy as patrons fill the bar, eagerly raising their glasses in celebration. It's evident that this gathering is not just about drinks; it's a meeting point for sports enthusiasts and fans alike. Football and boxing memorabilia adorn the walls, paying homage to these beloved sports. As we delve into this snapshot from the past, we can almost hear laughter echoing through conversations about thrilling matches or unforgettable fights. This photograph encapsulates a moment where sporting legends come together in camaraderie over pints of ale. Memory Lane Prints has beautifully preserved this slice of history for us to cherish today—a testament to the enduring spirit of sport and community that transcends generations.
