board game | premium: Blondie Goes to Leisureland

A large sized board game printed on linen was very likely a premium with purchase of a large Westinghouse appliance in 1940. Capitalizing on the licensed use of the very popular comic strip Blondie, Westinghouse offered a board game in which Blondie is beset by all the extra drudgery her daily chores include. "Blondie thinks it ought to be coffee grounds for divorce to have to put up with an old-fashioned coffee pot." The winning square is Blondie's "Leisure-land" where an all-electric household awaits.
