EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time to a rowdy drinking party at the Christopher public house, where a society of old Etonians gathered to celebrate their mischievous exploits. This lively scene captures the essence of camaraderie and revelry as these young men proudly display their stolen inn and shop signs.
The walls are adorned with signs for a pawn shop, milliners, optician, wineseller, fishmonger, cobbler, barber, and more - each one a trophy from their daring escapades. The Oppidan's Museum, also known as the Eton Court of Claims at the Christopher, serves as a testament to their adventurous spirit and sense of fun.
Handcoloured by Robert Cruikshank in 1825 for "The English Spy," this copperplate engraving brings to life the vibrant atmosphere of this historic gathering. Written by Bernard Blackmantle (a pseudonym for Charles Molloy Westmacott), this image is a snapshot of an era filled with excitement and mischief.
As you gaze upon this print, you can almost hear the laughter and clinking glasses that filled the air that night. It's a reminder that even those from prestigious backgrounds like Eton can let loose and enjoy themselves in unconventional ways. Raise your glass to these spirited individuals who knew how to have a good time!
