    Description

    Back in the mid-1960s, Milton Bradley published a pair of wonderfully sexist games: POW! (for boys) and WOW! The Pillow Fight Game for Girls.

Each side has a plastic cannon with a cannon ball (marble). The cannon "shoots" the marble over the barrier to knock down the opponent's soldiers. As described in the directions, POW! is "a safe, fast-action soldier game..."
