By the final of the beginning decade of the twentieth century bridge with bidding known as auction bridge had almost solely supplanted the original game. Auction bridge was the dominant form of the game for around 25 years. During this time there were important changes in the bidding and scoring which continue features of fresh bridge but there was one more stage yet to reach contract bridge. The contract principle missing from auction bridge is that you only get the bonus for the game if you actually bid it. Just as auction bridge developed premature in the history of ingenious bridge, contract bridge was not lengthy in appearing. As with its predecessors, it is not definite who started it.

At first, contract was dominant only in France, where it became obvious as bridge plafond (ceiling’). In the UK until the slow 1920s it was a niche activity confined to a scanty clubs. In the USA it took off largely behind 1927 thanks initially to the social imprimatur of Harold Vanderbilt, the appeal of his variant of the scoring system and the marketing genius of Eli Culbertson, who took the game well beyond the elite to the broader American and European middle classes. The first of the final of different scoring systems came in 1929 when the British custodian of the laws, the Portland Club, adopted the Vanderbilt scoring, amid much controversy. It remained a popular variant, played largely in social settings for many decades after the introduction of contract.

In the light of other accounts of the game being played or talked about, this is highly unlikely to be the case. As this was the maximum influential club in England in the world of cards, he would definitely have played a very important tipping point’ role t
