$42.00
1972 Clue Game, Parker Brothers. Complete and in very good condition. The box has the word 'complete' written on it.
Step back into the world of mystery and deduction with this classic 1972 edition of Clue by Parker Brothers. This particular version is celebrated for its iconic cover art, featuring a cinematic, staged photograph of the suspicious suspects—including Professor Plum, Miss Scarlett, and Colonel Mustard—gathered in a lavishly decorated Victorian-style library. The aesthetic of the box perfectly captures the moody, sophisticated atmosphere that has made this detective game a household staple for generations.
This set is verified as complete, ensuring you have every card, token, and weapon needed to solve the crime in Mr. Boddy's mansion. The box remains in very good condition, retaining vibrant colors and sharp edges, though it does bear a small, handwritten note from a previous owner stating "complete" on the top right corner—a charming testament to its well-cared-for history in a family game closet. Whether you are a collector of vintage board games or looking to add a touch of Playhouse whimsy to your next game night, this 1970s edition offers a much more tactile and nostalgic experience than modern reproductions. It serves as both a functional game and a fantastic piece of Mid-Century graphic design history for your study or library shelves.
This item is vintage, over 50 years old.
