EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming photograph captures the timeless tradition of Blind Man's Buff, a popular game from the 19th century that continues to be a beloved holiday pastime. In this image, taken during a festive Christmas party, courting couples can be seen playing the game in corners of the room, their laughter and whispers filling the air. The game, which involves one person being 'it' and trying to tag the others while being blindfolded, provides an excuse for romantic rendezvous and secret moments of affection. The rotund man in the center of the image, with a red face and a determined expression, seems to be the only one left playing the game without a partner. Despite his apparent frustration, he maintains an enthusiastic attitude, engaging with an energetic child who is eagerly participating in the game. The child's joy and excitement are contagious, adding to the overall merriment of the scene. Blind Man's Buff is just one of many mid-century customs and traditions that continue to be a part of our holiday celebrations. The game, with its simple rules and endless possibilities for fun, has stood the test of time and remains a cherished part of our collective history. This photograph, with its historical significance and heartwarming depiction of love, laughter, and tradition, is a beautiful reminder of the joy and connection that the holiday season brings.
