As shown. See all photos. All cards accounted for. Clearly the cardboard box cover has seen better days. Found among my later mother’s belongings. Belonged to our ancestors. I’m gonna guess my mother’s mother’s father or aunts/uncles purchased this game. Impressed no card is missing. Instructions also included.

“In 1885, his family moved to Salem, where he published four more card games: **The Dickens Game**, Ivanhoe, Speculation, and Great Battlefields.”
The reason why I surmise 1887 is because advertising on the box alludes to a *new* game called Chivalry. Deductive reasoning based on said promotion.

What’s also cool is that this side of my family hails from Salem and Bridgewater and Sharon, Mass., so possibly they even knew the Parkers personally. LOL.
