Description

While the origin of Willie Mays’ “Say Hey” moniker is not quite definitive, it caught on fast and stuck. The offered novelty attests to Mays’ immense popularity at an early stage in his career. Marketed by Oliver Toys in 1954, this Willie Mays “Say Hey!” Baseball game pays homage to the Harlem great. In its original red cardboard box (presents EX with moderate paper loss on the upper left corner of the lid), the game is complete with all of its original parts. The fold over playing field board includes three outcome spinners, with one each for pitching, fielding and batting; one pen marked score card sheet; eight plastic disc position markers, and most importantly, a playing rule sheet and an individual photo of Mays (same picture as 1954 Bowman card).
