Released in 1977, Lakeside's The Big Deal is a wonderfully satirical financial board game subtitled as the chance of a lifetime game. Players travel around a wheel-shaped board buying up bizarre business ventures like retired sneakers, trained worms, and rocket skates while trying to avoid crazy opportunities that drain their cash flow. The unplayed condition of the interior pieces makes this particular set an exceptional find for collectors of vintage 1970s corporate satire and pop-culture tabletop history.
