EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this charming and intricately designed box for The Round Game of Happy Families, produced by Chad Valley around 1910. This vintage image showcases Mr. Scraps the Butcher, one of the character cards from the game. Mr. Scraps is depicted as a jovial, rotund tradesman, dressed in a butcher's apron adorned with meat cleaver emblems, and wearing a tall, white hat with a red floral border. He proudly displays a selection of meat joints, hanging from hooks in his shop, with a large knife at the ready. The box design, featuring a border of flowers and hats, exudes an air of nostalgia and elegance, transporting us to a simpler time. The Round Game of Happy Families was a popular parlor game during the early 1900s, and this beautifully preserved box design is a testament to the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating these games during that era. Mr. Scraps, with his friendly expression and plentiful supplies, invites us to imagine the lively and engaging atmosphere of a family gathering around the table, playing this classic card game together. The Round Game of Happy Families was a beloved pastime that brought families and friends closer, and this stunning box design is a reminder of the joy and connection that games can bring.
