Vintage Corner the 8 Ball Game

We bought this vintage + very mysterious Corner the 8 Ball game from a gentleman who came into Wacko, wondering if we’d be interested in buying them. He found a large number of these games in perfect, vintage, unopened condition in his grandmother’s attic + couldn’t find any information about them whatsoever. Intrigued, we bought ‘em! It’s copyrighted from 1953 + was manufactured by Westan/Western Standard Products Co. The box reads, “Intrigue your friends, sharpen your wits. Portable, packable, parlor + pocket game.” Apparently  it’s as “Simple as Tic-Tac-Toe. Different from anything you’ve ever played. Challenging as checkers!” Even if you don’t play the game, it definitely will look cool in your house. Box measures 8 x 8.
