This Milton Bradley game, from around the turn of the twentieth century, is actually a kit designed to teach children the value of money and the goods it can purchase. A paper label explains how this can be done with the contents of the game box. The box holds paper for making (shopping) sacks as well as play money and goods for purchase. Though other games involve buying goods for money, this Milton Bradley example seems quite unique.
