Hi, I'm an admin for a group called ANYTHING GOES ENGLAND,VINTAGE PHOTOS,POSTCARDS,EPHEMERAetc..., and we'd love to have this added to the group!

This photo was taken on June 8, 1911. The English Polo team was playing the U. S. team in America. A New York Times story of June 8 reported that play had been delayed because the field at Meadow Brook was soggy after three days of rain: query.nytimes.com/mem/archive-free/pdf?_r=1&res=9E07E...

Wystan: Thanks for pointing out the date on the negative and locating the likely date of the event--an interesting discrepancy. We'll add the information to the description when we update.

I started this article in 2009. I have identified every player and have written short biographies for almost all of them : en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Polo_Cup
