MARX
Pro Bowl Live Action Football Game
1969 Edition

This is probably the largest home football game ever created. The "field" mat measures over 6 feet long. It uses oversized Marx football player figures that you line up in formation and run plays using a quarterback / kicker that really throws passes and kicks field goals, a motorized ball carrier and 2 wheeled defenders.

The game parts are in VERY GOOD condition. The game includes everything you need to play. It is nearly complete, missing only 2 of the 5 original foam balls and the whistle. It includes the field, the quarterback, the 2 wheeled carriages, the motorized ball carrier car (tested and working), line of scrimmage frame, 3 of the 5 original footballs, 2 complete field goals, the scoreboard, 10 yard marker and the instructions. The parts show typical wear from use but nothing has suffered any significant damage. No broken or mended. Some of the players are a bit dirty but none are damaged or chewed up. The instructions and scoreboard show some handling. Overall I would grade the game parts 6 on a 10 scale (see condition guide below).

The game box is in POOR-GOOD condition. The lid is in rough shape It has some stains, some tears and some tape and is barely holding together. The box bottom is intact and sturdy. Overall I would grade the box a 2-3 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.
