EDITORS COMMENTS
In this charming photograph from 1909, a lively group of men and women are seen engrossed in a friendly game of Whist at a public whist drive in suburbia. The new craze of the time, Whist was a popular social card game that brought together communities in a fun and engaging way. The men in the image don their formal attire, wearing tuxedos and top hats, while the women are elegantly dressed in long skirts and blouses, their hair neatly styled. The setting is a spacious and well-lit room, with large windows allowing natural light to filter in and brighten up the scene. The air is filled with the sound of laughter and the occasional whistle, adding to the lively atmosphere. Whist drives were a common social event in suburban areas during the early 20th century. These public gatherings provided an opportunity for people to come together, meet new acquaintances, and enjoy a friendly competition. The game of Whist was simple to learn and easy to play, making it an ideal choice for social events. The photograph captures the essence of this sociable pastime, with the various groups of players intently focused on their cards, while others engage in animated conversation. The sense of community and camaraderie is palpable, making this image a fascinating window into the history of social gatherings in suburban areas over a century ago. The photograph is a reminder of a time when socializing and community building were an integral part of daily life, and card games like Whist played a significant role in bringing people together. This image, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, is a must-have for anyone interested in social history, card games, or the history of suburban life.
