1893 Cheery Families by Thos. De La Rue, London

Description

Here’s a charming antique Victorian card game by Thomas De La Rue of London.  This Cheery Families game is complete with a full deck of 52 cards beautifully illustrated by Richard Doyle.  If you click on the image showing all the cards, you can zoom-in to see more detail.  Remarkably, the original Rules sheet is still present,  The 2-piece sleeved box has a section missing from the (plain) back of the outer sleeve but the Title card attached to the front is in good complete condition as shown.  The game was published in 1893.
