Vintage Lowe Yahtzee Game. Measures 14" by 7 1/2". Complete. Good condition. Box is in used condition.

This original 1956 edition of Yahtzee is a quintessential piece of gaming history from the E.S. Lowe Company. Known as the "Fun Game That Makes Thinking Fun," this classic dice game was famously acquired by entrepreneur Edwin S. Lowe from an anonymous Canadian couple who originally called it "The Yacht Game". This mid-century set captures the first commercial era of the game before the rights were later sold to Milton Bradley in 1973.

The game is complete and ready for play, featuring the iconic 1950s box art that includes the "Professor" character in his graduation cap. As a complete set, it serves as a wonderful nostalgic centerpiece for family game night or a unique display piece for a collection of vintage Americana. Its enduring appeal lies in the perfect balance of luck and strategy, making it as engaging today as it was when it first debuted.

This item is vintage, over 70 years old. While it appears to be in good condition, the box shows wear consistent with age and previous use. While it appears to be in good condition, there is the possibility I may have missed a minor detail. In the unlikely event I missed a major flaw I would reach out prior to sending it.
