Hey Folks,
Just curious if anyone has seen any more of this little game set. The sides of the box say "Patented, June 19, 1917" There were 50 cards in it plus a rules card and a scorecard..Since it says "Brought forth by the Spirit of AMERICAN Democracy...I will call it "Spirit of American Democracy" set for now...I don't really expect any/much feedback on this one as it is rather esoteric and fairly plain looking.....but ya never know....best regards

How long before some company starts using that slogan after we start cratering Iraq?

Leon,
While doing some research on the m101-4s and 5s, I saw an ad in TSN (3/16/16)for the sale of "a fascinating new card game" claiming to be a regulation playing deck, "all fine points covered" "endorsed by the stars". If interested, one is supposed to contact the NATIONAL GAME CO in St. Louis. This might be your game, with added language to the box in 1917 after we joined WWI.
