EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph captures the Cobbler family, one of the characters from the classic card game "Currant Happy Families," which gained popularity in the United Kingdom during the 1940s. The game, a variant of the well-known "Crazy Eights" or "Happy Families," was a favorite pastime for families and friends during this era, providing entertainment and connection in times of hardship and rationing. In this image, the Cobbler family is depicted with their distinctively colored clothing and occupational symbols. The father, dressed in a brown apron and holding a mallet and last, represents the family's shoemaking trade. His wife, wearing a blue apron and holding a darning needle and thread, symbolizes the mending and repair work that was essential in the 1940s when resources were limited. Their children, dressed in red and yellow, playfully peek out from behind their parents, adding a touch of joy and warmth to the scene. The game of Currant Happy Families, with its simple yet engaging mechanics, allowed families to gather around the table, engage in friendly competition, and create cherished memories. The Cobbler family, with their traditional roles and heartwarming image, serve as a reminder of the importance of family, community, and the simple pleasures of a game well-played during the 1940s.
