Got a box of vintage books for $10 that will make 10x that amount! - Tom Ray's Day 200712

After looking at some of the pop-culture items I sold today I get a box of vintage illustrated books for $10 and discover it's filled with some total gems! Then I draw about it in my daily webcomic.

I sell vintage pop-culture items I collect from the 50s to the 90s to help support my art career online instead of starting a Patreon or taking on freelance work.

I'm going to try and see if I can find out how this game was created, designed and why? Here is what I found out about this game https://candy-land.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Land_Wiki Candy Land is a board game about children exploring a world made out of candy and other sweets that originally came out in 1949.

Drawing of the Candy Land kids I did on my phone ☝ https://board-games-galore.fandom.com/wiki/Candy_Land The game was designed in 1948 by Eleanor Abbott , while she was recovering from polio in San Diego, California. It's rumored that Eleanor also did the original artwork but I didn't find anything that

Bent tire.

No one could have got in there so I don't know what happened?
