Vintage board games
Article Abstract:
Boards for a game similar to Parchessi called 'Pachisi', the traditional game of India some 2000 years old, are unearthed in archeological sites throughout India and Southeast Asia, which are as popular in the 21st century as ever. The fun of collecting these old treasures is pure nostalgia and it does not have to be an expensive hobby but when buying for value, very good to excellent condition is critical.
