TUDOR
Tru-Action Electric Baseball Game
1975 Edition
|
There were a number of
different versions of the Tudor Electric Baseball game created during
it's production run. The early Tru-Action games had the pitcher hurl a
magnetic "ball" at a metal representation of a batter and backstop. The
batter would then try hit the backstop from behind with a spring-loaded
bat causing the ball to fly off into the field. The more recent
baseball game replaced this mechanism with a more traditional mounted
swinging bat.

The game parts are in EXCELLENT condition. The game
includes all the parts that came with this edition. It does not appear
that the game was played with much at all so most everything is in very
nice shape. The instruction booklet got a bit mangled in the box. It is
missing the first and last page but I eventually figured out how to
assemble it so you should be able to as well. I have tested the game
and it does work. It is not the easiest game to learn to play but once
you figure it out it's fun. Overall I would grade the game parts 7 on a
10 scale (see condition guide below).
|
The game box is in GOOD condition. The bottom flap
is entirely missing. Otherwise good shape with no writing or stains and
just some light shelf wear. I would grade it a 4 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.
