“Forest Ranger board game manufactured in 1940. The game consists of a paperboard box; an instruction sheet; play money; game cards, and a paperboard game board. The box lid and game board read, ‘The Forest Ranger Game in connection with [Civilian Conservation Corps] Camps’ and feature color illustrations of a forest fire, a ranger cabin and a fire tower.”
