EDITORS COMMENTS
This intriguing photograph captures the intensity and playful spirit of The Nose Game - Impulsive Nose A2, a popular pastime during the 1920s. The image features a group of women in profile, each with a serious expression as they focus intently on their cards. Dressed in pinafores and aprons, they appear to be in the midst of a lively game, likely played for entertainment during their work breaks. The rules of The Nose Game were simple yet amusing. Each player would secretly select a card with a nose drawn on it, and the goal was to identify the woman with the matching nose. The Impulsive Nose A2 card denoted a quick or short temper, adding an element of fun and mischief to the game. The women in the photograph display a range of expressions, from determined to amused, as they compare noses and try to guess which one belongs to the card they hold. Some women touch their own noses thoughtfully, while others lean in close to examine their neighbors' features. The game's setting further emphasizes the playful atmosphere, with a bucket of water and soap nearby, likely used as a punishment for those who failed to correctly identify the matching nose. A woman in the background, her hair pulled back into a neat bun, seems to be laughing at the scene unfolding before her. This photograph not only offers a glimpse into the pastime and social dynamics of the 1920s but also highlights the lighthearted nature of everyday life during this era. The Nose Game - Impulsive Nose A2 is a charming reminder of the simple joys and shared experiences that brought people together, even during the most mundane tasks.
