EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming vintage photograph captures the delightful moment of a young boy named Master Pot, the son of the Tinker, engaged in a game of Gibbs Happy Families with his siblings and animal companions. The image, taken in the early 20th century, showcases the playful and joyful atmosphere of the scene as the children gather around a table spread with their Gibbs Happy Families card game. Master Pot, with his mischievous grin, holds up a card featuring a flute-playing musician, while his sister looks on with a proud smile. A squirrel and a rabbit, perhaps their family pets, sit attentively at their feet. The warmth and happiness radiating from the image is palpable, as the children immerse themselves in the game and create cherished memories. The Gibbs Happy Families game, a popular parlor game during the Victorian era, was a variation of the classic card game 'Crazy Eights.' The game's name came from the Gibbs brand of toothpaste, which was often used as a sponsor or advertiser for the game. This photograph, however, does not depict any commercial use of the Gibbs brand and instead focuses on the joy and connection between the family members and their animal friends. This image offers a glimpse into the past, reminding us of the simple pleasures and treasured moments that can be found in the everyday lives of families, even during playtime with a beloved card game like Gibbs Happy Families.
