EDITORS COMMENTS
Cheery Families - Mr. Goody the Grocer" and dating back to the 1890s, captures a delightful moment of camaraderie and joy among a group of men and their families. The scene unfolds in a quaint Victorian grocery shop located on Bunhill Row in London. At the center of the image stands Mr. Goody, a bald, smiling grocer with a warm and welcoming expression. He wears a crisp, white apron and is engaged in a lively game of cards with a few of his customers. The atmosphere in the shop is cheerful and convivial, with the men and their wives or children gathered around the counter, watching the game with amusement and anticipation. The women, dressed in elegant Victorian attire, appear to be enjoying the lively banter and the sense of community that the game has created. The shelves behind the counter are filled with an array of groceries, from jars of pickles and bottles of condiments to loaves of bread and sacks of flour. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the social fabric of Victorian London and the role that local shops and community gatherings played in people's lives. The image is a testament to the enduring power of games and shared experiences to bring people together and create lasting memories." - Terry Parker / Mary Evans Picture Library, Cheery Families - Mr. Goody the Grocer, 1890s.
