Game of Dr. Busby
Unique Pen And Ink On Cardstock
Nineteenth Century
Accompanied by the Parker Brothers boxed game
for comparison and game history...

This circa 1840's version has 20 playing cards approximately 3.5 inches by 2.5-inches, pen and ink on paper mounted on card stock. Box is fabric covered cardboard. Cards show toning and some wear, some fabric losses. Original printed instructions and original 5.5-inch by 7.5-inch blue cardboard box with gold lettering; lid is torn and soiled. Noted for those of us unfamiliar with this game; it was invented in 1843, came with 20 cards printed in color and was played like Old Maid. The drawing of the servant is more benign than one ordinarily encounters for the period.
