    Vintage Archery Meet: Celebrating Early 20th Century Sport

    $35.00

    This photograph captures an archery meet held in the United States between 1915 and 1920, vividly showcasing the sports popularity during the early 20th century. Participants are seen in traditional garb, complete with quivers and bows, as they engage in this precision sport. Archery was experiencing a resurgence in America at this time, gaining traction through organized competitions and increasing public interest.

    Taken by the Bain News Service, this image also connects to the wider cultural context of sporting events during this period. An article in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch from September 3, 1916, highlights the growing enthusiasm for archery as more people started participating in and watching such events. The technique of using glass negatives was standard for photographers of this era, allowing for remarkable detail and clarity in images, further preserving the essence of this competitive atmosphere.
