Vintage Howdy-Doody card game by Russell Manufacturing Company of Leicester, Massachusetts, featuring colorful illustrations of Howdy Doody and other characters from the classic television series.

This wonderful early TV collectible includes the original illustrated Howdy-Doody box, playing cards, and rule/instruction cards. The cards feature a variety of characters and colorful red, blue, green and orange markings, along with the Air-O-Doodle Joker.

The original box is marked:

“Made in U.S.A.

Russell Mfg. Company

Leicester, Mass.

251-3”

The cards are in very nice vintage condition overall with expected signs of age and use. The original box remains intact but does show noticeable age-related wear, including edge and corner wear, surface wear and some discoloration. Please review all photos carefully, as they are part of the description and show the exact set you will receive.

Please note: I have not independently verified the original card count, so I am not representing the set as complete. All included cards are shown in the photographs.

A fantastic piece of Howdy Doody, early television, 1950s advertising, vintage toy and card-game memorabilia—especially nice to find with its original box and instructions.

Ships carefully packed the same or next business day.

Thanks so much for looking, and happy hunting!
