For more than half a century the Scrabble game has been America’s favorite word game, and this 1948 Nostalgia Edition celebrates those years in retro style!

The Scrabble game spells F-U-N in any decade, so travel into the past with vintage graphics and this unique collectible tin. A family favorite that spells over 60 years of fun!

In this classic word game, players use their seven drawn letter-tiles to form words on the gameboard. Each word laid out earns points based on the commonality of the letters used, with certain board spaces giving bonuses. But a word can only be played if it uses at least one already-played tile or adds to an already-played word.

This leads to slight tactical play, as potential words are rejected because they would give an opponent too much access to the better bonus spaces.
