Rowing Blazers
By: Jack Carlson
Photography by F.E. Castleberry
Classic American style was born in British boathouses, where the very first blazers were fashioned for college rowing clubs. This book, created by champion rower Jack Carlson, offers an insider’s guide to the elaborately striped, piped, trimmed, and badged garments, as well as the stories, elite athletes, historic clubs, and races associated with them. Featuring lush photographs by “prep” guru F.E. Castleberry, Rowing Blazers is a definitive visual feast, transporting readers to the highly atmospheric boathouses, campuses, and team rooms of clubs around the world. For anyone who has raced the rivers or lined the banks, this handsome ode to the eye-catching, evocative rowing blazer is a must.
Jack Carlson, who has raced in the World Rowing Championships and the Oxford-Cambridge Boat Races, won all three of the traditional international rowing regattas in 2013. He is currently a Clarendon Scholar at Oxford University.
F.E. Castleberry is an American fashion photographer. His commercial clients include Ralph Lauren, J. McLaughlin, Club Monaco, Elizabeth McKay, and Penfield. His work has been featured in GQ, Women’s Wear Daily, and Town & Country, as well as in Preppy: Cultivating Style.

- Antique Cambridge Scouts Rowing Oar, 1925Located in Oxfordshire, GBCambridge Scouts 1st Boat Presentation Rowing Oar. The full-length oar is an original traditional presentation rowing oar with gilt calligraphy, the crew's names and weights and the Scouts emblem. The Cambridge Scout Boat Club was formed in 1923 and was successful from the start, they were Head of the River on three occasions. The blade reads:- Cambridge Scouts 1st Boat 1925. Bow. E.C.

German. 7.0. Coaches A.B. Stephen, J.A. Pocock. Bumped:- Town II, Old Choristers II, Y.M.C.A I, Old Choristers I. IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING SHIPPING. As the oar is full length (12 foot) shipping can be quite expensive. We have come up with an ingenious way to cut the oar so as to make shipping cheaper, the oar can then be easily reassembled. One of the images shows different images of an oar that has been cut down. It is cut by the leather sleeve so the joint is less visible or obvious. The oar can then be bolted together to make the oar one solid piece. Please do enquire about the different shipping options.

C T Wood had rowed at Shrewsbury School and was treasurer for '99 rowing club in its early days. 'There are three particular things we owe to C.T.Wood;… in 1923 he urged the formation of the Scout Boat Club, of which Fred Feary was the first Captain, and I a humble non-rowing member'. WTT Archaeology 1978 The club was for Scout Masters, Scouts and Rovers over 16. The club was successful from the start and the first boat sat in the top three for a quarter of time it raced and the top five for half the time. Scouts I reached 3rd position by the end of their fourth years racing and was only out if the top 5 for one year in the next quarter of a century. In some years it put out four boats in the town bumps and four in the Time Race, the only two events for which we have most of the results It was Head of the River on three occasions. Scouts I had the rare distinction of starting from last boat and reaching Head of the River in the town bumps without being bumped.
