Old Board games and a puzzle
Cool to see you got an original Pippi Langstrumpf puzzle, with the lovely Inger Nillson! SFZ
ReplyDeleteYes, got it in a charity shop in Marburg SF. Could just about slot it into my rucksack.
DeleteI remember getting the board game "Waterloo", must have been about 10 years old. I loved the look of it, with its two territory boards and little abstract plastic troops and generals. Don't think I ever played a proper game of it though, it was rather complicated as I remember (quite a lot of rules in a good sized instruction booklet) and my sister, who I often pestered to play games couldn't have been more uninterested in it if she had tried! :) Loved the box, though!
ReplyDeleteI think I'm like your Sis Ed, I get bored playing board games. But, I love them as artefacts and have collected them for years. I don't recall Waterloo but I got it as it looked old and interesting. I've yet to properly look through it.
DeleteWas just looking it up on Google, I thought there was something not quite right...the version of the game I had was called "Campaign", not "Waterloo".
ReplyDeleteYes, I know what you mean Ed. Campaign has drums on the cover doesn't it?
DeleteGreat to see that Pippi Långstrump puzzle, the tv series was as fond watch as a child along with Emil of Lönneberga, another Astrid Lindgren classic.
ReplyDeleteYes, it's a gorgeous box and I adore the colour photo art Arto. I don't know Lönneberga but I'll look it up. The Missus is reading a novel about Astrid Lundgren by Susanne Lieder.
