Description

An antique 'spin and move' style children's racetrack game where the players race to be the first newspaper boy to travel 79 spaces to reach the Large Store end space. Special spaces along the way can cause a player's pawn to advance or go backwards. The game components include the box, a spinner, and four wooden pawns. The illustrated game board is printed on the inside of the box bottom. The concise rules (five sentences long) are printed around the outside edge of the game board.
