Men Playing Shuffleboard in an English Inn, 17th Century This image transports us back in time to the 17th century, where we find a lively scene unfolding in an English inn. The photograph, dated back to the 17th century, depicts a group of men intently focused on their game, their expressions a testament to the excitement and camaraderie that comes with friendly competition. The game of choice for these men is shuffleboard, also known as shovelboard in some regions. The long, rectangular table, covered in a green felt surface, is the setting for this popular pastime. Each player holds a long, wooden cue in hand, ready to shove their discs, or pucks, towards the scoring areas at the other end of the table. The game's objective is to score points by getting one's discs closer to the scoring areas than one's opponent's discs. The inn, with its low-beamed ceiling, open hearth, and wooden tables and benches, provides a warm and inviting atmosphere. The men, dressed in the fashion of the time, add to the historical authenticity of the scene. Their attire, consisting of doublets, breeches, and stockings, is a reminder of the era's distinctive style. This photograph offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing us with a window into the social and recreational activities of the 17th century. It is a reminder that, despite the passage of time, the enjoyment and appeal of games like shuffleboard continue to endure.
