1950s Space Race Card Game
I found this fantastic 1952 space themed card game, "Space Race," at a toy show last weekend, and was blown away by its graphics. The deck features classic mid-century space exploration illustrations, including sleek rocket ships, clean-cut space men, and outrageous space monsters.

ReplyDeleteVery nice collection of vintage items. I love looking at those things since I was a kid in the 70s. I visit a place called Volo, IL twice a year to check out these sort of items.
