It’s hard to decide whether the richly coloured photos that line the walls of The Sport Gallery are memorabilia or art. Each limited edition print captures a sporting legend or game-changing moment from the 1940s, ’50s or ’60s sport history, when athletes still loomed larger than life. There are images of female ’50s racecar driver Janet Guthrie, Joe DiMaggio, and professional golfer Arnold Palmer teeing off flanked by fans. “We focus specifically on those three decades, because the images are so much more rare and beautiful,” says shop manager Cayleigh Parrish. “You wouldn’t normally find a colour sports photograph from 1949.”
