Description

In December 1932, during the great depression, Don Munro had no money to buy his children Christmas gifts. Instead Munro went into his basement and transformed his wife`s ironing board into a hockey game. This game is a variation of a modern table-top hockey game. Made by Munro Games Ltd. of Toronto, Canada. It uses spring action players and a pinball type release for puck (which is a small ball bearing). 36" long x 14" wide x 5" high at the center. Nets were made of cotton. The players were represented using a wood top and a wire for the hockey stick. The playing surface is made of veneer, sideboards were made of Masonite. A true collectible for fans of dexterity sports games.
