pair of vintage of 1960s BOOKSHELF GAMES

Description

Pair of bookshelf style games from the 1960's.

One game titled...

"FOIL"

Description on back reads...
"FOIL pits player against player-and time- in a stimulating game of words and wits. Unlike other word games, FOIL challenges your skill in unscrambling words as well as your ability to form words. Players first score points for forming words. Then, after scrambling them to foil opponents, players with quick wits and keen minds will score additional points for unscrambling their opponents' words in the allotted time. The infinite variety of words and letter combinations make FOIL an ever-changing, ever-challenging game providing fun and fascination for two to four players of all ages. Bookshelf case contains letter cards, word holders, card tray, timer and instructions."

Another game titled...

"JUMPIN"

Description on back reads...
"JUMPIN is the challenging new alignment game that fascinates adult and children alike. It's easy to learn-but don't be misled: you'll find Jumpin to be one of the most absorbing games you have ever played! To play: Each player attempts to get his 12 pawns to the opposite side of the board (before his opponent can do the same) by "leap-frogging" over his own or his rival's pawns. Jumpin is for two players or two teams, children or adults. Bookshelf case contains playing board, pawns and instructions."

All pieces are intact in both games.
Pawns do show a bit of a patina and boxes show some wear.
Other than that, they're in very good overall condition.
