Game Room

A 1947 catalog from The Game Room, 1538 Connecticut Avenue, Washington 8,

D. C. gives this notice to buyers:

―

If you

‘

ve ever had to execute one of those COD

forms, you

‘

ll understand why we prefer that your check or money order

accompany your letter. COD shipments are more expensive for you, and

inconvenient for both of us.

In the Bar Mart story we found a Bar Boy in the 1947 catalog with

―

The Five-Way

Bar Accessory

‖

on the box.

Count the uses in the Game Room copy above...1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. The tools are

exactly the same, but Game Room bested Bar Mart by one use.
