EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming vintage print depicts Miss Bung, the brewer's daughter, from the classic British card game "Happy Families," devised by Mr. Jacques in 1861. The game, which predated modern board games and was played with a set of trading cards, was a popular pastime in Victorian England and is still enjoyed by families and card enthusiasts today. Miss Bung, with her cheerful expression and traditional brewer's garb, represents the Brewer's Family in the game. The game's objective was to collect a complete set of "happy families" by trading cards with other players. Each family consisted of a father, mother, and three children, and there were various other character cards such as the Doctor, the Lawyer, and the Fool. The history of "Happy Families" is intertwined with the history of toys and games in Britain. Mr. Jacques, a Frenchman who had settled in England, is credited with creating the game, although there are earlier records of similar card games. The game's popularity continued well into the 20th century, and it remains a beloved part of British cultural heritage. This print, with its intricate details and vivid colors, offers a glimpse into the past and the simple pleasures of Victorian life. The image of Miss Bung, with her rosy cheeks and traditional headdress, evokes a sense of warmth and nostalgia. The print is a reminder of the enduring appeal of card games and the joy they bring to families and friends, even as technology and entertainment have evolved over the years.
