This week’s pictures from the past

Here are some fishermen from the past saying hello to the present and as this is the only photo we’ve got of them, we’ll hope you’ll excuse its poor quality.
This picture was used in the Wellington Journal and Shrewsbury News of October 8, 1938, with the caption: “Sabrina (Shrewsbury) Angling Club, photographed on Sunday, after winning the Shropshire Angling Championship on the River Severn near Cressage. Winners of the ‘Journal’ Angling Cup.” Holding the trophy is Mr Ernie Kelsall, who had the highest individual catch. This picture was loaned to us by his son Jim, who lives now in Oswestry, but hails originally from Shrewsbury.
