| Summary |
An authentic 1889 catalogue from the Milton Bradley Company, this volume features detailed descriptions of all the company's latest toys, games and puzzles. Providing an interesting look at the world of toys and games at the turn of the 20th century, the catalogue offers over 100 different items, including a yacht race board game for $1.00, educational toy money for $.25, a classic "Pin the Tail on the Donkey" game, a jigsaw puzzle of a United States map and more. The catalogue is an early one in the company's history and features the original Checkered Game of Life board game that would go on to become the famous Game of Life still sold around the world today. |
