Mr Young, swim champion

Details

DescriptionStudio portrait of a male swimmer. He is wearing a typical costume of the day. The trophy stands on an Edwardian plant stand. The name "Young" is written on the negative and the number "53". Swimming was an enormously popular sport in the interwar years, with clubs formed all over Adelaide and competitions and fixtures held often. There were dozens of trophies and cups to be won for speed, endurance, relays, races in baths and long swims in the ocean and the Port River. This chap's swimming costume is typical of the period, but doesn't carry a club crest or insignia.
