100 - "Trans World Flyer"

 

a new and instructive party game, at which a remote controlled  twin-engine aircraft (with rotating props) is flying around the world (map). Control by means of 2 levers. Each player is his own pilot and flies the aircraft towards the destination - according to the rules prescribed for this game. Colored lithographed, boxed.

This game has 2 clockworks - one in the base station and one in the aircraft. There are 12 colored National Flags - describing name of the country and its capital.

Hans Biller claimed patent rights on September 3rd 1954 - after the game was first presented at the 5th German Toy Faire at Nuremberg. He was awarded the patent on July 9th 1959 - No. DBP 1 048 811.

Seize: 510 x 160 x 95 mm

Beside the different numbering of both leaflets the layout had been changed. The right side version (which I consider the younger one) has a slightly smaller picture and the text layout was corrected.
