Vintage 1950s Space Race Board Game by National Games USA – Near Complete

Step into the Atomic Age with this rare vintage Space Race board game by National Games Inc., made in West Springfield, Massachusetts, USA. Likely produced in the 1950s during the early fascination with space exploration, this educational game was “fun for all ages" and designed to teach accurate scientific facts about our solar system.
The game includes its original game board, instruction sheet, four colorful plastic player pieces, two dice, and a vintage plastic dice cup. One compartment still contains its original "Playing Pieces" packaging. It appears nearly complete, but please refer to photos for exact contents. The box shows moderate shelf wear consistent with age, including edge wear and one split corner (see close-ups).
