Description
N.pl: The Christian Endeavor World, 1900. Very good. A couple minor short tears.. An illustrated leaflet promoting subscriptions to the serial "The Christian Endeavor World", multiples of which can be exchanged for the games advertised in the leaflet. The parlor games, advertised as ideal games for "long winter evenings", include the following: "Golfette" (a golf-like game involving inflated balloons); "Amazon Blow Gun" (a shooting/target game); "Parlor Football" (a tabletop ball game); and "Crown Combination" (a board game reminiscent of billiards). A great example of how serials would promote subscriptions via prizes or mail order goods. Measures approx. 3.5" by 6" folded, 7" by 12" unfolded, with images of the games being played.
