Flags

Cincinnati, Ohio: The Cincinnati Game Co, 1900. Good. Wear/damage to box, light dust soiling and staining, warping to cards.. A vexillology-themed card game from the 1890s, housed in the original box. Number 1111 in the Cincinnati Game Company's series of games. Originally issued in 1896 by the Fireside Game Company (previous name of the Cincinnati Game Company). This set is near-complete, and lacks the original printed instructions card. It contains fifty-two (52) cards plus one "crown card". The goal of the game appears to be to collect the most complete sets of flags. Each is labeled with a letter and a number (e.g. "A1"), and a complete set would be "A1" to "A4". Box measures approx. 3.75" by 2.75" by 1
