Etsy Finds: Vintage Fun and Games
Article Header Image

When it comes to fun and games, it doesn't always have to be bells and whistles. While I may love Wii tennis as much as the next girl, old fashioned games have a certain allure that all the electronics this side of paradise couldn't touch. Introduce a little old fashioned charm to your next Saturday night with these oldies (but goodies).


Handmade Game Board - Chess or Checkers - 1950s Vintage

This playing board has handmade craftsmanship and vintage flair. As you can see, it's been well-loved: won't you give it a new home and some fresh chess pieces? At UncommonEye, $34.

Vintage Dart Set

This dart set was mighty tempting, but I (somehow) managed to resist. The self-contained set is good for on-the-go darting; who needs a rec room when you can portably play darts at a picnic? (P.S. It has a Pony Express illustration on the front, if you weren't already completely convinced. Go get it!) At foxandfound, $22.

Antique family card game - PIT stock market

When I first heard about Pit, I was not havin' it. A fun game that involved corn, wheat and stock market prices? Yawn! However, once I got down to "business," I was yelling and grabbing cards like my portfolio depended on it. Get financially savvy with this vintage game. Over in PoeticHome, $8.

Vintage Childrens Toy Game - Roulette Set

I don't know if this mini-roulette game is right for children, but it's mighty appealing to me! Let the gambling begin. At theSaturdayShoppe, $8.

If you are curious about a game, Boardgamegeek.com is a great site to read about any game and find out what it's like.
