Old Board Games
« on: May 08, 2012, 06:52:29 pm »
Back with some more stuff I need appraised:)  I dug up some old kid's board games dating from the 60's and 70's.  I don't have much use for these anymore so I figured I would try and sell them, so I could use a price!  (Sorry if these aren't technically antiques)
1) Hasbro Alley Up Game
Condition: Good
Parts: All There


2) Milton Bradley Concentration Game
Condition: Closer to Good
Parts: Pretty Much All There


3) Gilbert Chem Lab 4 Set
Condition: Average
Parts: Pretty Much All There



Thanks for the help!

You might try checking your local library or book store for reference books on board game values. I found a list of highly recommended titles. If you can find copies of any of these, perhaps it could give you an idea of the value of your games. Hope you find what you need!
