Ring Around the Rosie, 1941

Entitled: "Children playing 'ring around the rosie' in one of the better neighborhoods of the Black Belt, Chicago, Illinois." Ring Around the Rosie is a nursery rhyme or folksong and playground singing game. It first appeared in print in 1881, but it is reported that a version was already being sung to the current tune in the 1790s and similar rhymes are known from across Europe. The first printing of the rhyme was in Kate Greenaway's 1881 edition of Mother Goose; or, the Old Nursery Rhymes: Ring-a-ring-a-roses, A pocket full of posies; Ashes! Ashes! We all fall down. Photographed for the Farm Security Administration by Edwin Rosskam, April 1941.
