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.
