Yesterday at salvation army I saw the game RISK and it looked like an older box so I got it..... It says COPYRIGHT 1959 on it and according to this page it came out in 1957!
http://wikipedia.org/wiki/Risk_(game)
I cant believe someone had this AND LET IT GO!!
They had it priced 9.99 but I got 1/2 off......
The board looks fabulous!!!!!!!
They really ruined this game starting in the 80s and its sad.....

The original French version came out in 1957. The version in 1959 was the first English version.

Re: What have you just bought?

I don't bother with ironing either. If I need a shirt ironed I use a handheld steamer which does the job.

Don't bother with Ironing mate, it's not needed, just hang shirts on either an outside line or indoor rack(like I do) on a hanger straight out of the washer without using a dryer, it'll make your life easier.

My sister will not allow this, she is a Karen, and that is her name.

Tell her you tried an easier way or ask her what time would you like your ironing delivered to her. Lol

The umami flavour giver. I sued to make all-veg Minestrone, then one day added MSG, and WOW! 
The game would be MGS
