Football (Russia)

Judging by the number of these games on ebay there must have been many factories churning out these games for years and years!

A direct copy of the long running Chad Valley Soccer Stadium tin game - but arguably better because of the lovely tin figures.

Football (Russian game)

Lovely illustration on the box lid. Not too much time spent on the game name!

Playing pitch

Shaped tin pitch with tin figures moved by levers and wires. This set is almost mint except for a couple of number stickers missing.

Rules

Use the levers to make the men kick the ball when the ball stops in their recesses - that's it!
Literal design - a table and a football!

Playing figures

Nice tin figures with sprung legs.

Player levers

Shaped tin levers move each player using wires and springs. Simple and robust.

Lev Yashin

Even after all these years the all black keeper kit is iconic and without equal (despite the cap).

Game play

The game looks great and is nicely finished.

Kicking mechanism

Nicely produced levers, figures and wires.
