SIX DAY BIKE RACE
Lindstrom Tool & Toy Company of Bridgeport, Connecticut, ca. 1934

This was part of a series of double-sided tin games by the Lindstrom Toy Company in the 1930s. Other games in this series included western-themed were bagatelles (Wild West, Wild Cargo), a baseball game (Double Header) or pure betting games (Hot Spot, High Ace). The games on the flip side (as, in this case, Hot Spot) were not made of tin but of cardboard

 

Lindstrom colours have not survived well. Most copies of this game are yellowish nowadays, but they used to be bright green (or so I think). Check the flags.

Spin!

Quite simple
