Old board games evoke images of the 50's. Mom and dad sitting around the table with their 2.2 kids, drinking milk and eating home made peanut butter cookies. At least in my mind.
One of the coolest and easiest collections to start is old board games. They are easy to find, inexpensive and the whole family can participate. Classic games like Monopoly are suitable for the slightly older crowd, while Operation is suitable for everyone except drunken Uncle Buck. (He'll kill the patient guaranteed). These collectables can be had for less than a buck at most garage sales. My lovely wife, Mrs collectordude has a wonderful collection of old Ouija boards, some dating back from the 30's. Here's a great link to a 1936 Monopoly game on Ebay. Yours for only $40. http://www.ebay.ca/itm/Vintage-MONOPOLY-game-circa-1936-Parker-Trading-Game-Edition-/150897077882?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item23222aae7a#ht_500wt_1156
