EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph captures a moment from the early 1910s as a young boy, identified as Chad Valley, plays The Round Game of Happy Families with his friends. The game, which is a variation of the classic card game "Happy Families," is being enthusiastically enjoyed by the children, who are intently focused on their cards and the excitement of each round. The image shows Chad, dressed in a short-sleeved shirt and trousers, sitting at a table covered in various items used in the game. A pot of glue and a brush are nearby, suggesting that the children may be making their own card game pieces or repairing damaged ones. A sticky mess can be seen on the table, adding to the playful and messy atmosphere of the scene. In the background, another boy, identified as The Master Plane, the carpenter's son, looks on with interest. He may be considering joining the game or offering his carpentry skills to help create or repair game pieces. The round game of Happy Families was a popular pastime for children during this era, providing hours of entertainment and social interaction. The photograph offers a glimpse into the simple joys and innocence of childhood during the 1910s, a time when games and activities, such as The Round Game of Happy Families, brought people together and created cherished memories.
