WHITEHOUSE, Francis Reginald Beaman, (pag. 66): COUNTRY FAIR (The), or Rural Sports and Rural Rambles. A Comic Game. London. Published by William Spooner, 379 Strand, 1st Nov. 1854. Printed by L’Enfant, 18 Rathbone Place.
A coloured lithograph size 16 ¾ in X 22 in, mounted in 9 sections on linen, folded into hinged boards, cloth-covered with picture label, on front. Rules pasted inside front cover. A companion game to The Journey and Cottage of Content, the playing track being very similar; so also are the names, e.g. “Scamper Road”, “Peep Show Lane", etc. These games of Spooner’s are as distinct in their way as those of the Wallis family. The comical figures in the early ones are strongly reminiscent of Cruikshank, who was at the height of his fame about that time.
N.B. Spooner was at No 377, Strand from 1842-44, and at No. 379 Strand in 1847.
