"Kroketas"


Near Vilnius, Lithuania, about 1920. Croquet became a "mass phenomenon" in nineteen-century Lithuania. Here, members of my Kaunas Cousin's family test their skills on the front lawn.

Thanks to my Kaunas Cousin for making this photo available to us.

Something else everyone borrowed from the English.

Very proper and very respectable.
