Boston Marathon Game (1978)

The Official Boston Marathon Game. Approved by the Boston Athletic Association. 1978. Perl Products Company. 522 S. Sepulveda Blvd., Los Angeles, Ca. 90049. Race 26 miles, 385 yards with thousands of other runners in the privacy of your own home! This game is a "spin the spinner and move toward the finish" game. The board has some neat mid-1970's jogging craze comic artwork. There's a vicious unpredictable dog to avoid, a press bus, bowls of beef stew, 1600 other runner tokens, a laurel wreath for the winner, a police escort, etc. A funny game that you don't see too often.
