Forget I was ever here
<p>I have what appears to be an old version of Diplomacy. It is sealed in the box so I can't tell much about it. The side says model 9100, made in USA by Games Research. Inc., Boston, MA. 02118</p>
<p>Can anyone tell me the year or years this would have been made?</p>

(Asked by: username_0 on 2023-06-30)

I have what appears to be an old version of Diplomacy. It is sealed in the box so I can't tell much about it. The side says model 9100, made in USA by Games Research. Inc., Boston, MA. 02118

Can anyone tell me the year or years this would have been made?
