Walter Johnson Game Directions
Posted By: <b>Butch & Co.</b><p>Hi Phil! Examples of the Walter Johnson game do always seem to be missing something. If you're looking for an actual sample of the original directions, that's a tough assignment, as you'd probably have to buy another entire game (well, not entire -- that one one would likely be missing some other component!). <br /><br />If you just want the directions per se, though, so that you can play the game, they're ridiculously simple (you probably figured them out yourself). They're written like this: <br /><br />DIRECTIONS <br />Write in names of favorite players on score card. <br />Open spinner and get men. <br />Each person spins for their team. <br />Play is as shown on the uppermost side of the top. <br />Top spins best on felt or covered table. <br />Place men on score board for outs, strikes, balls. <br /><br />And that's it. Some editions (the game was in production from 1930 until at least 1940) omit the second direction above. <br /><br />Butch et al <br />Baseball Games <br /><a href="http://members.aol.com/Butch7999/Baseball.htm" target="_new" rel="nofollow">http://members.aol.com/Butch7999/Baseball.htm</a> <br />(soon to move to a new address on-line) <br />
