Tek Toothbrush 'Snow White' Board Game

Issued during the film's initial run, this "Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs Game" was sponsored by the Johnson and Johnson Company and produced by Einson-Freeman Co. It was a promotional give-away, "compliments of Tek Toothbrush." Made of paper, the board measures 14.5" x 17.5" (14.5" x 21.5" when the game pieces are still intact along the right side panel).

It displays some nice Tenggren-inspired illustrations.

When folded, the board slides into an 11" x 9" sleeve.

The object of the game is to unite Snow White with the Prince at the "Castle in the Sky" while navigating through numerous obstacles. Players take turns drawing cards. Those with black numbers move forward upon the board. Those with white numbers in red circles move back. A "No Penalty" card is held and can be used when a player lands on a "Go Back" space or draws a red circle card.

There are four playing pieces and the 30 game cards.

No markings on the back of game board.
