It’s not as remarkable as discovering, say, a beautifully preserved Senet board, but for game fans this is still something. Have a look at the condition of the 1893 baseball-themed board game discovered in the eaves of an estate house in Missouri: according to this short video report from CNN.com, it is one of only ten surviving copies in the world. What’s more, it seems to be the only intact copy anyone knows about. (I thought intact board games were mythical.)
