- Description
- Photograph of a clash between an Offaly and a Kilkenny hurler on the pitch in New York. The two players, shoulder to shoulder, jostle each other. They are turned in the direction of the camera. The Kilkenny player, on the left, leans against the other man, his hurley almost horizonal over his opponent's head. The Offaly player holds his hurley with both hands, before his face. A Kilkenny player is visible, in the right foreground. Behind him is a raised rail track. The sliotar hungs in the air, in the right/centre background. An advertisement for J T Whalen, fine furniture, is visible in the distance behind it. The sky above is vast and cloudless.
