In 1908 a pub owner named Anakin in Leeds, Yorkshire, was taken to court for permitting darts to be played in his establishment. He offered to prove that darts was a game of skill. A board was set up in the courtroom, and there Anakin threw 3 darts in the 20. He challenged any of the magistrates to duplicate his feat. When they could not (darts is, after all, not as easy as it looks!), the court was forced to accept that darts was indeed a game of skill, not chance, and the laws were eventually changed.
From then on, the game of Darts was found in every pub across Great Britain and still survives today as a pub game.
So with all the other sports and events that were portrayed on Postcards during the 'Golden Age', I would expect the game of Darts to feature on a postcard or two - but all I get is blank responses from dealers at a Postcard Fair when I ask for the game of Darts on Postcard - except the odd comic one, of course.
So please , if you can help locate some Dart-related postcards, I would be extremely grateful to know of their existence.
