MILTON BRADLEY
Swat Baseball Game
 1957 Edition

This classic action game was re-packaged a number of times from the 1920's - 1950's. It was originally simply called "Baseball". The batter swings a cardboard bat at a pitched marble. The landing spot of the marble determines the result of the play. The final edition was scaled down and game play revised. It included a spinner to simulate balls and strikes, and the cardboard bat was replaced by a rotating top which shot the pitched ball off into the field.

The game parts are in EXCELLENT-NEAR MINT condition. The game includes all the parts that originally came with this edition. The game was never played with, having the marbles and spinner still sealed in the original baggie, and none of the cardboard die-cut holes punched out. There is a small rust spot on the spinner board where the metal spinner rested all these years. The spinner board has some dishing. You would need to flatten that out to get the spinner to move freely. Overall I would grade the game parts 8-9 on a 10 scale (see condition guide below).

CONDITION GUIDE: 

MINT (10):
 I will only give this grade to brand new, unused items. NEAR MINT (9):  Shows virtually no use.  Seldom if ever played.   Perhaps some very light handling creases to the instructions or other minor flaws with the game parts.  Boxes will have only the slightest hint of shelf wear.   EXCELLENT (7-8): The game has seen some use but it was obviously well taken care of.  Game parts might have some light handling creases or other signs of careful use.  Board might have just a hint of color loss or dented corners.  Boxes will have light rubbing to the artwork or perhaps some minor dishing or a very light stain.   VERY GOOD (5-6):  The game was not especially well cared for but it still has faired pretty well.  Game parts will show obvious use but nothing will be torn, badly stained or have any serious damage.  Box may have some rubbing, light staining, dishing, 1 or 2 neatly split corners, minor writing and/or a few pieces of tape.  No major structural damage and artwork will still be generally attractive.  GOOD (3-4): Obviously no care was taken with the game but it is still playable as is.  Game parts show considerable use but the game is complete with all parts in usable condition.  Box may have staining, writing, split corners, dishing and/or other structural damage but it will be intact and still usable.   POOR (1-2):  Only suitable to fill a space in your collection.  Game will be missing parts (these will be noted).  Box will have serious damage and may be missing aprons or badly torn.
