Cover Description

The cover depicts roller skaters skating at an indoor rink. In the foreground is a girl (red dress with white around shoulders) looking away, a man (black top hat, jacket, and pants, with white shirt and high collar, and a pince nez), a woman (long yellow dress with two black stripes, dark hat with long white plume), a mustachioed man (gray outfit with horizontal black stripes, knickers), and a boy (offwhite outfit and cap, red/black socks).

In the upper left background musicians are playing from an elevated box.

The game board measures 26 1/2" wide by 14 1/2" high, and folds into 3 sections. It depicts a roller-skating rink filled with skaters. There are two paths made of squares from start to finish, each numbered from 1 (at lower left and lower right) to 62; the finish is in common and is marked 63 at top center. The paths intersect in 7 places, where they share the square, which for 6 of them is marked with two separate numbers associated with each path.

At top in the rear are two bars with several shelves lined with bottles. There are also several palm plants. At center top is an entrance/exit with pink curtains.

The multicolor metal movers depict roller skaters; there are 3 men and 3 women movers.
