IDEAL Mouse Trap Game Excellent Cond Big Box COMPLETE Original Vintage 1963 RARE

First, original release of this classic game. Fully complete, original parts and in very good condition for it's age. The game is ideal to play as all the parts are present including the spring, instructions, mice, 2 balls which are often lost.

The set isn't perfect as I have repaired the corners of the box with sellotape and there are 2 packaging inserts missing - the red one is present but originally there would have been two others.

Please see photos for condition and further information. 

About Mouse Trap:

Mouse Trap pits 2-4 players against each other as mice trying to navigate through a complex mousetrap. They build the Rube Goldberg inspired mousetrap as they move their mice across the board. Once it has been completely constructed, players can attempt to capture each other's mice in it by turning the crank, which activates it. If it doesn't malfunction, the mouse is captured and out of the game. The winner is the last mouse who avoids being trapped. The game's main appeal is the ridiculously complex contraption that is the mousetrap. Somehow even young children can figure out how to assemble it from the blueprints on the board, and everyone enjoys watching it do its magic.

The original 1963 version of the game states "A game for 1-4 players" and that did not change until the 1970 version. The cheese was not part of the game until 1984 which was the last year Ideal games was making the game.
