A lot of gaming nostalgia right there.

Cheeky!

It certainly takes me back to the 1960/1970's - see if you can find an SPI one as well - I had far more games published by them than by AH.

Here's a 4 pager from 1970, oldest AH catalog I have.

I have other older catalogs to get to eventually

Yes, I'm weird, but I find them fascinating.

I wouldn't want to be part of any family that wanted to play those 'family circle' games.  ;D

 :dice: :dice: Avalon Hill.....be still, my heart! AH games and Dragon Magazine were such a major part of my young life.

Somewhere, somehow, I woke up in the wrong timeline. I'm pretty sure this isn't even my dimension.

I just won bids for Afrika Korps and Tobruk, both by AH.  :biggrin:
