EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and whimsical colour lithograph captures a scene from The "Nose" Game, a humorous card game popular in the early 20th century. The illustration depicts a comically exaggerated nose, denoting quick temper, as part of one of the cards in the set. Created by an unknown English School artist, this print showcases the playful and light-hearted nature of the game.
The "Nose" Game consists of five sets of types, each set containing ten different cards with unique characteristics represented by various facial features. In this particular card, the impulsive nose symbolizes someone with a short fuse and hot temper.
The intricate details and bold colours used in this lithograph bring to life the quirky charm of this vintage card game. From its inception around 1927 by Carreras, The "Nose" Game has entertained players with its clever caricatures and witty descriptions.
