FRANTZ/HUSTLER
INTERCOLLEGIATE FOOTBALL
MECHANICAL TIN GAMES

This game features really nice period artwork. Like the very similar Great American Baseball Game there are a number of different versions of this game out there. The original was put out by Frantz in the early 20's. A few years later Hustler Toys took over production and simply took the Franz version as is and pasted a "Hustler" sticker over the "Fantz" logo on the spinner housing (the billboard on the left side of the field still bears the Frantz advertisement). Version 3 was reprinted by Hustler and all references to Frantz are removed from the board. A reproduction was put out a few years ago by Shylling Toys. There are no references to Frantz or Hustler in the Shylling version.
