EDITORS COMMENTS
Stephen Stitch, a dedicated tailor in the 1930s, takes a brief moment of respite from his mending and alterations to engage in a game of Snap with a friend. The tailor shop, filled with the aroma of fresh fabric and thread, serves as the perfect backdrop for this playful scene. Snap, a popular card game, adds an element of excitement and entertainment to the daily routine of the tailor's work. With a stack of cards spread out on the floor, the two friends sit cross-legged, their legs forming a triangle around the cards. The tailor, with a pair of glasses perched on his nose, carefully examines the cards in his hand, while his friend leans in, eagerly anticipating his move. The tailor's sewing tools, including a needle and thread, are within reach, a reminder of the responsibilities that await him once the game is over. The worn and patched cards reflect the passage of time and the enduring nature of games, which provide moments of joy and connection, even in the midst of the daily grind. This photograph, taken in the 1930s, captures a rare moment of relaxation and camaraderie in the life of a tailor, offering a glimpse into the past and the simple pleasures that bring people together.
