Lot 505
The Game of Sambo - Parker Brothers, Inc., 1921. Made in Salem, Mass. The game consists of a 10" high figure on board of Sambo, "a good old Southern darkey," dressed in red and yellow, with a blue hat and tie. A yellow pipe is placed in Sambo's very wide, red-lipped mouth, and standing or sitting a distance of five to eight feet away, players attempt to ring the pipe with four cardboard rings. The box is damaged, with tape repairs to bottom and also to sides of lid (about 8" of one side of the lid is missing), but all items for the game are present and intact.
Estimated Value $450 - 550.
From an African American dealer who specializes in African-American memorabilia.
