STANDARD TOYKRAFT
OFFICIAL NFL QUARTERBACK
Football Game
1965 Edition
|
Standard Toycraft is
probably best known for it's TV and Movie tie-in games from the late
1950's and 1960's (Beverly Hillbillies, Dennis The Menace, Petticoat
Junction, Gidget etc.). But they also produced a couple of simple
sports board games (Official NFL Quarterback and Approved Little League
Baseball) plus a baseball action game called Mickey Mantle Roger Maris
Official Home Run Derby Game.

The game parts are in NEAR
MINT
condition. All the parts have been accounted for. I don't
think the game was ever played with. The red football and 10 yard
markers had never been punched out when I acquired the game (the
football marker has since come loose). The game also includes
the 2 original embossed Standard Toykraft plastic markers. The board
has a faint "musty" smell to it. I would grade the game 9 on a 10
scale (see condition guide below).
|
The game box is in VERY
GOOD-EXCELLENT
condition. The box lid has a few small stain spots from paint and
water droplets, and the white areas appear to me to have just
a hint of yellowing, but on the whole is still very attractive. It
features a great action scene from a Cowboys / Giants game. No split
corners. No writing. The box bottom is in good shape as well with some
minor dishing and a small tear in the paper. Overall I would grade the
box 6-7 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.
