Hi, I found this vintage still sealed game. I was wondering if anyone had any info on it?

I found one that looks similar on Ebay but without opening it I have no idea of what it is or it's worth?

It has STAM on the box for a brand but no date.

STAM was a Greece based toy and game maker. They produced several games based on U.S. TV shows starting in the 60s that were not available in an English version in this country until the `70s. They had games based on The Love Boat, Combat, Dallas, Zorro, Dynasty. They had crime and old west, based games as well.

The only way to find it's value is to auction it off. Everything is the world has the same exact value, the amount somebody is willing to pay. The risk of an auction is getting less than it's real value. The risk of it being sealed is you could get a return if the language isn't as thought or there is damage inside. If it were mine I'd price it BIN high - $300 and if no takers in a couple months maybe try an auction.

@toysaver,

The STAM logo that is photographed was used for the games sold in the U.S. and Canada as was STAM TOYS on later issues. Some of their toys had STAM on one side of a toy's name and TOYS on the right.

There was no logo on the Greece issues, but there was writing in the Phoenician alphabet on the top, sides and ends which may be the company name.

Stam made a lot of games based on U.S. TV shows and other types of toys as well.

@yoursize4less,

If you want to get an idea of the game's value login to the Canadian site (ebay.ca.com) you can use your username and password then do an Advanced search (sold items) for Greek Board Game. STAM board game, or do searches for the games by TV show I mentioned. I found ones for Little House on the Prairie, Hart to Hart as well. Most titles mentioned Greek board game.
