Cheery Families. Marks and Spencer plc, United Kingdom. Bespoke gaming deck, 52 cards + rule card. Size: 77mm x 107mm. Deck make-up: Cards: 52 cards: 13 families with 4 members each (father, mother, son, daughter). Extras: rule card. 2009 re-release of a game to celebrate the 125th anniversary of Marks and Spencer stores. The box says: "Cheery Familes was first sold as part of a range called 'St. Michael Juvenile Card Games' and today this timeless game will still provide hours of fun for all the family." This release is thought to date from the late 1930s. However, the game isn't original as a De La Rue version, dating from the 1890s (possibly earlier), had previously done the rounds. The De La Rue version had the same artwork (by Richard Doyle) but in full colour; the Marks' version is in two colours (red and black) only. The game itself is a version of Happy Families, with the families each having a tradesperson as the father. You can see all cards and info in https://steve-p.org/cards/Chee.html
