Just to chime in on the Major League Indoor Base Ball thing -- and by the way, Mike, again, fantastic pick-up, and thanks for the invite --
Mike himself has covered it pretty well. Yes, the "Indoor" edition does seem to hail from earlier than the "green-box" edition, by perhaps just a year or less. The "green-box" edition is usually seen with the patent date, but a few examples sport the "patents applied for" legend. We've seen dozens of examples of both editions in varying degrees of completeness, but while AL, NL, International League, and Federal League roster strips have shown up, we've never seen any evidence of AA or PCL rosters. We've never seen an example of either edition that was hinged at the scoreboard end, but we too are always learning... The one other thing we'd mention is that a few examples of the "Indoor" edition have a pale beige background around the spinner, while every example we've seen of the "green-box" edition has a pale blue-grey background there. However, as with Mike's game, most of the "Indoor" games have that blue-grey coloring as well. Something to watch out for if one is considering a purchase of "Indoor" -- the "Indoor" box lid can be copied and laser-printed and the fake then inserted over the "green-box" lid (we've seen a couple of weak attempts at it).
