Masterpiece: The Art Auction Game from Parker Brothers


In Masterpiece: The Art Auction Game from Parker Brothers, players assume the persona of one of six characters: Baron Dietrich von Oberlitzer, “Bitsy” Rich Wong Dobrowski Keyes, Count François du Bonnet, Millicent Friendly, Roxy “Big D” Warrenson of Dallas, TX, and V. Elton Whitehall Esq.

Personally, I always chose to be Roxy because she was “deviously breezy” or Baron Dietrich von Oberlitzer because he was “a high-rolling gambler with a suspicious past.”

Remember the toys and games of years past through vintage advertising – for better and for worse!
