The game parts are in
EXCELLENT condition. All the original game parts are here including 3
of the 6 original felt footballs. Some of the sheets have been torn out
of the instructions booklet but all are included. The scoreboard is in
great shape and includes all its dials plus 13 of the 16 team name
inserts. Overall I would grade the game parts 7-8 on a 10 scale (see
condition guide below).

The teams are in VERY
GOOD-EXCELLENT condition. There are no players with broken limbs, no
repairs, no touch-ups and no leaners. The Packers team are of the
"Amber" variety. The paint on these has worn off a bit on their backs
but nothing too serious. All players have their original Hog Leg era
bases. Overall I would grade the teams 6-7 on a 10 scale (see condition
guide below).
|
The box is in VERY GOOD
condition. It has 4 split corners (2 of which were mended with clear
tape) and some scuffing on the edges and corners but on the whole is
still in pretty good shape. No holes, no stains or writing. There is
scribbling on the inside of the box. Overall I would grade the box 6 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.
