EDITORS COMMENTS
Step right up, ladies and gentlemen, and witness the thrilling spectacle of the classic Carnival game, 'Ball Throw'! This photograph, taken in France during the late 1880s, captures a lively moment in the history of these beloved games. A group of young boys and men, filled with excitement and determination, gather around, each taking turns to throw balls with great force, aiming them at the unsuspecting targets. The poor men in the foreground, with stoic expressions on their faces, bravely endure the barrage of balls, acting as the unfortunate 'stocks' or targets. This unlucky job was a common sight at Carnivals and fairs during the 1800s, providing endless entertainment for the crowds. The air is filled with laughter, cheers, and the occasional groan as the balls either miss their mark or connect with a target. This historical image, brought to you by Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the simple joys and camaraderie that came with participating in these timeless games.
