We imagine that the ‘50s parlour game depicted here went something like this: the oldest man in the room was designated as “Old Man Money.” The others were known as “Two Bits.” The Two Bits would put up an ante and Old Man Money would decide who won all the money. He would be offered bribes (shoe shines, back rubs), but if he wasn’t appeased, he would keep the money. Let’s just say no one ever won the Old Man Money game.
