1964/1965 Challenge the Yankees![]() Baseball Board Game"Challenge The Yankees" was a popular baseball board game from Hasbro in 1964 & 1965.
(50) player cards: (25) Yankees and (25) All-Star opponents,
made the game a treasure trove for collectors. 4" x 5-1/2" cards
came in blank-backed perforated sheets on a fairly fragile paper
stock.
1964/1965 cards are nearly the same with a stat line the only way
to distinguish. A couple cards even have same stats so no way to tell
them apart.

Do you ???
