Fascinating discovery, Curt (and great looking website, too, we'll add). We think, though, that your surmise is correct --
that the Hit & Run game never went into mass production or distribution. We've never encountered an example of it
-- or even a mention of it -- in over 25 years of specializing in tabletop baseball.
Just by the by, your little shot at Games Magazine seemed unnecessarily dismissive. GM was for years the publication
for boardgamers, created by Sid Sackson (to whom the package was in fact addressed), an enormously respected giant in the hobby
as an award-winning game designer and games scholar and author. Just sayin'.
