This product was advertised as 1930/40's but the box bears the Royal Warrant which was not granted until 1953. However this does not detract from the game itself. It was in perfect working order and has already provided hours of fun in my family. It also reminds me of childhood Christmas' with my parents 60-plus years ago when Dad used to give us children halfpennies to 'bet' on the horses. Great fun.
treated correctly this game will last for years, very amusing and exciting, whilst it does not educate in the general sense it could teach people how to gamble for fun
