Antique Questions Forum / 1944 Game Set (chess/checkers/dice/poker/backgammon)
« on: May 19, 2014, 02:04:00 pm »
Hi all, first time on the forum!
Inherited this from my grandparents, always though this was a neat set and would love to learn more about it or find out if it's worth anything. It contains chess, checkers, backgammon, a (sealed) deck of cards, and a few sets of dice.
It's a game set (dated 1944) that says "ALL GAME SET #1100, METRO Games" on the outer carddboard box, and "PUBLICKER 1944" on the inner leather case. The sealed deck of cards has a blue stamp that says "U.S. P.C.Co." and "U.S.INT.REV.".
