Balloon Bursting Football Gentlemen Jolly Jump Strings Succeeds Games
EDITORS COMMENTS
A delightful scene from 1911 showcasing an unconventional yet entertaining take on the classic game of football. In this charming photograph, a group of ladies and gentlemen engage in a friendly competition of Balloon Football. Each participant holds a balloon attached to the end of a string, while the opposing team attempts to jump on and burst their opponents' balloons. The ladies in elegant dresses and the gentlemen in suits and hats create a striking contrast against the green grassy background. The excitement and anticipation on their faces are evident, as they leap into the air, aiming to burst their opponents' balloons. The victor, having successfully burst a balloon, is captured mid-jump, with a triumphant expression. The overall atmosphere is one of joviality and fun, making this image a true treasure from the past. This photograph is a wonderful reminder of the simple joys and amusements that brought people together in the early 20th century.
