A part of history made in our own backyard! This set comes with rare wooden pieces due to a metal shortage from WW2. Most sets from 1961 come with the standard playing tokens but assume these were still leftover. The board has been sitting in the box for over 50 years and has experienced some warping. It currently does not lie flat but can be fixed by leaving a few heavy books in the raised areas. Appears to be barely played with with properties in great shape.
