Antique Sarah Jane, Peg and Golly Playing Cards
This is a partial set of antique playing cards featuring the characters Sarah Jane, Peg, and Golly. Dating back to the late 19th or early 20th century, likely between 1890 and 1910, these cards showcase charming pictorial illustrations. The cards appear to be from a game designed for children, with each card depicting a scene or activity involving the characters. The style is typical of the era, with vibrant colours and detailed artwork.
Condition and Collectibility
This set is incomplete, with a selection of cards remaining from the original deck. The cards show signs of age and wear, including edge wear, surface scratches, and some minor staining. Despite these imperfections, the cards retain their visual appeal and historical significance. This partial set would be of interest to collectors of antique playing cards, ephemera, or those interested in the social history of children’s games and the depiction of characters like Golly in vintage media.
