1920 - Hartlepool Old Boys' - First Post Great War Tour

What we know about this image :

Fond of touring, Old Boys were soon back on the touring trail when at Easter of 1920, they undertook a 3 match Yorkshire tour firstly  drawing against Harrogate Old Boys 3 - 3 , then drawing with Skipton 6 - 6 and rounding off with a win over Ilkley 9 - 6.

The photograph is unusual as it features the Manager and Manageress of the Hotel (possibly in Harrogate) seated in midshot and the Hotel receptionist included in the front row.  Although not named in the pic, Manson, Plant and Horsfield are included in the scorers in Press reports!
