Title: Gambling - How times have changed?
Post by: Tonji on January 22, 2008, 12:18:41 PM
A photograph by Roger Mayne, taken at Southam Street, London, 1956. Showing young women gambling.

A little over 50 years, so much has changed. Yet the gambling instinct remains the same.

Any ideas as what sort of card game they may have been playing?
