1920 Magnetic Jack Straws by Milton Bradley Company | Antique Pick Up Sticks Game | Great Graphics!
Magnetic Jack Straws was a staple in the Milton Bradley line of games for many years. This is the 1920 edition featuring a crazy "Jack" tangled up in the straws n the cover.
Many of the original "straws" and magnet are still in the box making it playable, but we don't know exactly how many were originally included. The straws in this case are thin metal rods, some plain and some with wooden headings on them. Here's what's in the box...
Straight Straws - 17
Bent Straws - 17
Round Ended Straw - 1
Point Ended Straws - 2
Mallet Ended Straws - 3
