Beschreibung

Colour folding sugoroku game sheet, 54 x 79cm, some mild wear and occasional spotting, a prior owner's name and address on reverse, good copy. This sugoroku game sheet on the fall of Port Arthur was published on 1 December 1904, before the actual fall took place, clearly with an optimistic expectation of victory. The game begins with the Battle of Chemulpo Bay and follows the progress of the war across different locations. Although the illustrations depict both Japanese and Russian troops, Japanese victories are frequently emphasised. The game had educational and propagandistic effects, helping family members learn place names and battles. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 214704
