Description
A delightful 1960’s card game, comprising a complete deck of 44 cards, beautifully illustrated with British Birds and printed in fine detail. Each card is a miniature work of Art. There are eight sets of five birds plus four Owl cards as shown. Also includes the original instruction booklet. The cards are all in very good condition with no creasing and little sign of use. The box is also complete and in very good condition for age.
Published under their famous Pepys brand name, the game was made in England by Castell Brothers Ltd. Hatton Garden, London, EC1.
Description from the boardgamegeek site:
“The deck consists of 44 cards. There are 8 sets of 5 bird cards, and 4 owl cards. Each of the 8 sets have a letter on them, then each of the birds within the set are numbered 1 through 5. The object of the game is to collect as many sets of 5 with the same letter on them as you can. The game proceeds with players asking for cards from each other and assembling sets. If you have a card but don’t want to give it up, you may play an owl card. As soon as you have a set of 5, lay it down in front of you. When all sets have been assembled the game is over.”
