EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming and intriguing photograph of the Little Folk Misfitz game set, featuring the scene "Where are you going, my pretty maid?" from the early 1910s. This vintage game, which includes a set of cards with various parts of a milkmaid and her dairy scene, invites us to imagine the story unfolding before our eyes. The image captures a young girl, dressed in a red and white checkered dress and apron, carrying a wooden bucket on her head and a straw hat in her hand. She sits on a simple wooden stool, her expression thoughtful as she looks off into the distance. The milkmaid's accessories, including a milk pail and a churn, are scattered around her, hinting at the daily chores of the dairy. This photograph is a beautiful example of the whimsical and imaginative nature of early 20th century children's games. The Little Folk Misfitz game, created by Ethel Parkinson and Faulkner Ltd, was a popular nursery pastime that encouraged creativity and storytelling. Each card in the set featured a different part of the milkmaid or her dairy scene, allowing children to assemble the scene in various ways and create their own stories. The warm, natural light and the girl's earnest expression add to the nostalgic and timeless quality of the photograph. This image is a delightful reminder of the simple pleasures and joys of childhood, and the power of the imagination to bring stories to life.
