Mouse Trap Game

I think every kid that ever saw this game wanted it!!! 



The Mouse Trap Game was originally made by IDEAL in 1963 and this particular edition of the game was produced in  1975. It  is unfortunately missing the rules, the man who dives into the cup and the cup.  Although some nice person replaced the cup with a tupperware replica, reasonable trade I say. 

I found this game at a local Salvo's store for about $3 and was completely smitten with how it had been kept. Although there are a few pieces missing it is in brilliant condition with the original plastic bags that contained the pieces.

This is a really cool game but its an absolute pain to set up.  The newer version is much easier to place the pieces than this one, its almost like putting a jigsaw puzzle together. 
 BUT it is fun to play.
