EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up and join the Little Folk Misfitz for a delightful game of 'Goosey Goosey Gander'! This charming turn-of-the-century photograph captures a group of young girls in their pink dresses and wide-brimmed hats, gathered around a table adorned with a set of intricately illustrated Goosey Goosey Gander cards. The game, which dates back to the 18th century, involves the players taking turns being the 'goose' and attempting to avoid being 'caught' by the other players. In this image, we see the girls in the midst of the game, with one girl holding the goose poultry bag and another peeking out from behind it, ready to 'catch' the unsuspecting 'goose.' The cards, which feature intricate illustrations of geese and other whimsical characters, add to the playful and imaginative atmosphere of the scene. This photograph, which is believed to date from around 1910, offers a glimpse into the past and the simple joys of childhood games. The girls, with their wide grins and animated expressions, embody the carefree spirit of youth and the enduring appeal of a classic game.
