[Airplanes vs War Ships Board Game].

[Japan]. Circa [ 1940]. Stock ID #216804

Colour folding game sheet (36.5 x 26cm), 10 wooden playing pieces each with embossed images in beige and blue (complete), original box (15.5 x 7.6 x 2.3cm) considerably worn and soiled and corners reinforced, the game itself is in very good bright condition.

This is a two-player board game where air planes and war ships fight against each other. Fascinatingly, the game sheet illustration shows the battle ground is in the Pacific where islands with palm tree are dotted. Consequently, the game might be produced at the early stage of the Pacific War. The players attack each other after starting from a naval base and an air base. There are two islands each where they are safely protected from their enemies. The playing pieces are made out of paper with embossed images of war ships and air planes, in beige (air power) and blue (sea power) colours.
