Board game:Red Ball Jolly Jets Treasure Hunt Game

Red Ball Jets Incorporated manufactured athletic shoes during the latter part of the 20th century from 1951 to 1971, when the firm was purchased by Keds, a United States Rubber shoe brand. Keds promptly retired the name. Red Ball Jets are best remembered for their catchy television ads, at a time where such ads reached ever-growing numbers of viewers, especially children. A board game premium in 1964 took the form of a pirate treasure hunt. Doubtless this made purchase of a pair of Red Ball Jets shoes even more appealing.
