Name/Title
BG is the Rage HereDescription
This extended feature in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch captures the spread of the game from east to west, and conveys something of the stir it caused in upper class social gaming circles, where bridge generally reigned supreme. The delightful illustration contrasts a staid elder generation in florid antebellum dress with the jazz-age styles of the younger “smart set,” who are engaged in the raucous give-and-take of the newly-invented chouette form of backgammon.Publication Details
