EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this image of a vintage nine pins or skittles game, dating back to the early 1900s. The photograph, part of The Keasbury-Gordon Photograph Archive Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, transports us to a simpler era, filled with the charm and character of the Victorian and Edwardian periods. Nine pins, also known as skittles, is an ancient game believed to have originated in Europe over a thousand years ago. The game involves rolling a ball to knock down nine pins or skittles, with the goal being to knock them all down in as few rolls as possible. In this photograph, nine wooden pins or skittles are arranged in a triangle formation on a dirt or grassy surface, with a lantern or torch nearby, casting a warm and inviting glow. The game is often associated with village fairs and outdoor gatherings, and this image perfectly captures the rustic and communal spirit of such events. The players, not visible in the photograph, would have taken turns rolling a ball or stone to try and knock down the pins, with the winner earning the pride and admiration of their peers. This photograph is a beautiful reminder of the rich history and traditions of the past, and the simple joys of a game that can be enjoyed by all ages. Whether you're a history buff, a collector of vintage images, or simply someone who appreciates the beauty of the past, this image of a vintage nine pins game is sure to be a welcome addition to your collection.
