EDITORS COMMENTS
- General Directions (1927): A Delightful 1920s Pastime Unearthed Step back in time to the roaring twenties with this charming photograph of a group of men engaged in a playful card game, aptly named "The Nose Game." This image, captured in 1927, offers a glimpse into the lighthearted pastimes that brought joy and camaraderie to people during this era. The scene is set in a cozy, dimly lit room, where the gentle glow of a table lamp illuminates the faces of the participants. The men, dressed in formal attire, sit around a wooden table, their expressions focused and determined. A black cat, seemingly intrigued by the commotion, sits casually on the floor, its eyes fixed on the unfolding game. At the center of the table lies a deck of cards, with one man holding up a pair of cards displaying noses. His fellow players, each holding a cigarette, scrutinize the cards, their brows furrowed in thought. The rules of the game, printed on a piece of paper in the foreground, read "General Directions for The Nose Game." The game, which appears to involve identifying matching noses on the cards, adds an amusing twist to the traditional card game. The men's pointed caps, reminiscent of those worn by cricket players, suggest that this could be a popular pastime during cricket matches or social gatherings. This photograph, with its captivating blend of humor, mystery, and nostalgia, offers a delightful peek into the past and serves as a reminder of the simple joys that have endured through the ages. Whether you're a history buff, a card game enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates a good story, "The Nose Game" - General Directions (1927) is sure to capture your imagination.
