I think these and Cookie are great titles. Cheap and interesting. A lot of them have Dizzy Dames stories as well.

These vintage board games may be of interest. When my father in-law passed a few years back he passed these on to my wife and I. They were originally collected by my wife's grandmother. My wife believes her grandmother bought these games when they were new back in the 1920's.

 

Roly Poly, Peg Baseball and Follow the Stars, all from the early 20's

From 1927 by Parker Brothers. The "Flying Four" game is obviously cashing in on Lindberg's historic flight across the Atlantic, but there is no mention of Lindberg in the game.

Lastly this game has a pretty strong comic book tie in This game and the Barney Google comic books were created by cartoonist Billy DeBeck. The Barney Google comic strip began in 1919, with a comic book first appearing as Dell Four Color #19 in 1942. A second Dell FC followed in 1944 (#40)

 

 

From 1923, the Barney Google and Spark Plug game by Milton Bradley.

Here's a fun item. As you might know by now, I love bound volumes. I was tickled pink when I got one of Joe Simon's personal copies of Justice Traps the Guilty. He didn't take very good care of it but you can bet I will!
