PETER BERTHOUD

I'm a London enthusiast, researcher and collector specialising in rare British games produced during the Second World War, particularly board games and card games made for the Home Front.

​

This site will explore the stories behind these games, their connection to wartime morale, and everyday life in Britain between 1939 and 1945. My specialist collection of Pepys games can be found at collectingpepys.org.

​

You’ll also find all my original articles on London history, prints, and ephemera, the topics I’ve been writing about and used to lead guiding tours on for over a decade.
