ABSTRACT:
A board game in which the board contains a map of the United States. A track extending from New York to Los Angeles is drawn across the map. Spaces along the track include instructions which apply to each player whose game piece lands on such spaces. These instructions may be to the player's advantage or disadvantage and may, for example, advance or retard the player's movement along the track. The winner must be the first player to complete the round trip from New York to Los Angeles. A novel number selection device, for determining postage and the number of spaces a player advances, comprises in part a funnelform chute with deflection rods to randomly deflect a specially marked, miniature letter into one of several numbered mail bins. The number of the bin into which the letter falls determining the selected number.
