EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and nostalgic print captures the essence of a bygone era in the world of football. Depicting a Footballing Grandmother from the Happy Families card game, this image takes us back to the late 19th or early 20th century when football was gaining popularity as a pastime. The colour litho technique used in this print adds an extra layer of charm to the scene. The grandmother, dressed in her Victorian attire, stands proudly with a group of male and female players on a pitch. Their cartoonish appearance gives off an air of playfulness and camaraderie. In this snapshot from history, we witness how football transcended gender boundaries even during those times. The presence of both male and female players showcases inclusivity ahead of its time. The attention to detail is remarkable; each player dons their respective kit while holding onto their beloved ball. It's evident that these sportsmen and sportswomen are passionate about their game. As we gaze upon this image, we can't help but feel a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when football brought joy to people's lives. This print serves as a reminder that despite changing trends and advancements in technology, the spirit of teamwork and love for the beautiful game remains timeless.
