EDITORS COMMENTS
The Novice Who Ticked Off The Bridge Expert," we find ourselves in the midst of a heated moment at a bridge table. The young man in the foreground, with a smug expression and a monocle perched precariously on his nose, has just made a bold and unconventional move in the card game. The local bridge expert, an elderly gentleman with a stern expression and a monocle that has now fallen from his eye, can hardly believe what he's hearing. The young man's confidence and cockiness have left the other players in the background in a state of shock and amusement. One fellow covers his mouth to hide his laughter, while another leans back in his chair, a smirk playing at the corners of his lips. The expert's reaction is priceless - his face has gone completely white, his drink has been knocked over, and he looks as if he's about to explode. Bridge was a popular pastime in the 1920s, and Bateman's illustrations often poked fun at the game's rules and etiquette. In this image, the novice's audacity has caused quite a stir, and the expert's reaction is a reminder that even the most seasoned players can be thrown off balance by a bold move. The illustration is a testament to the enduring appeal of bridge and the human tendency to take ourselves a little too seriously." This illustration is a charming and humorous depiction of a bridge game gone awry, and it's a great reminder of the lighter side of a popular pastime. The expert's reaction is a classic example of the human response to being contradicted, and it's sure to bring a smile to the face of any bridge player or observer. The illustration is dated 1925, and it's a wonderful piece of social history that captures the spirit of the times.
