Nancy Drew Mystery Board Game
Game Board
I am a FIRM believer in Game Archiving and Preservation. So in the spirit as such, I will be uploading as much of the original 1957 edition of the Nancy Drew Board Game as I can, so others can print out and use it to play. This edition of the game has been out of print for years.
Game Instructions and Pieces
Markers:
For the Nancy Drew Mystery board game you will need about 19 or 30 small round tokens. The older versions of the game used wooden tokens, while Newer versions of the game utilized plastic markers like tidily-winks (as shown above). They need to be separated into 4 colors: Red, Blue, Yellow and Green. These are used to sit on the N-A-N-C-Y letters of the game board.
Pawns:
Your moveable pawn or player piece came in the form of a small car around the size of a Monopoly charm. You drive your car around the board to land on spaces. These might be trickier to come across, however any pawn piece will work just fine. Monopoly pieces work well, or keep an eye out for the cars and color them. You can make your own by printing out characters and placing them in holders or cardboard. Truly any game pawn works fine just so long as you know who is who.
Game Instructions:
The original game PDF instructions which were printed on the game board top can be found on Hasbro’s site Here. Or check out the typed out instructions below you can copy and paste or save however you like.
Introduction:
Nancy Drew is an ingenious daughter of a famous lawyer, and she herself is deeply interested in his mystery cases. Her interest often involves her in dangerous and exciting situations. In this game she is working on one of her many cases. The players in the game try to locate her and find out which case she is trying to solve.
Object:
The object of the game is to be the first player to discover Nancy's whereabouts. This is done by filling in the word NANCY with five markers of the same color on any one of the eight sites on the board. The first player to do this has located Nancy and wins the game.
Equipment:
A set of Mystery Cards, four cars, a quantity of colored markers, and two dice.
Preparation:
The Mystery Cards are shuffled and placed face down on the space on the board marked "Mystery Cards." Each player selects a car and the markers of the same color. One of the players is chosen to start the game.
Play:
The starting player places his car on the space marked "Start". He throws the dice and moves his car the number of spaces indicated on the dice. He must move the total number shown on both dice. If he lands on a space that has no special marking, his turn ends. The player to his left then plays in the same manner, and other players follow in turn in a clockwise direction around the board.
There is no end to the path around the board, and players may make several circuits before the game ends. The purpose of moving is to gain opportunities to place markers at the various sites, as it is the proper placing of markers that wins the game.
Star Spaces:
When a player lands by exact count on a space marked with a Star, he draws the top card from the pile of Mystery Cards, follows the instructions on it, and then places it on the space marked "Discard." His turn ends when he has carried out all the instructions on the card. When the pack has been exhausted, reshuffle and place face-down again on the board.
Moon lake Bridge:
Whenever a player lands by exact count on a space marked "Go to Moon lake Bridge", he immediately moves his car to the Moon lake Bridge space. Any player landing on, or being sent to, Moon lake Bridge space. Any player landing on, or being sent to, Moon lake Bridge is entitled to place one marker on any vacant circle at any one of the eight sites he may select. However, a player who changes places with an opponent already on Moon lake Bridge is not allowed to place one of his markers on the board.
Spider Web:
A player who lands by exact count on a space or draws a card that directs him to "Go to the Spider Web" moves his car directly on the Spider in the center of the Web, and his turn ends. On his next turn he moves around the Spider Web in a clockwise direction, as indicated by the arrows. After complaining on circuit, he moves out of the web and continues along the regular path.
Bumping:
Players frequently land on a space already occupied by an opponent's car. When this happens the car already on the space is bumped ahead to the next Blank UNOCCUPIED space. If the bumping player's car lands on a Star Space, he draws a Mystery Card and follows instructions. He also follows any other instructions printed on the space on which he lands. Any number of cars may occupy Moon lake Bride or the center space in the Spider Web; and therefore, cars may not be bumped from either of these two spaces.
Detour:
Any player whose car is resting on Moon lake Bridge may, on his next turn, continue along the regular path or may take the Detour. If he follows the Detour, he uses only one die. The Detour is the slower route, but a player using this route has additional opportunities to place his own markers and to remove those of his opponents.
Changing Places:
A player drawing a Mystery Card which reads "change position of your car with any other car" follows these instructions immediately. He chances places with the car which he believes will put him in the most advantageous position, and his turn ends. If any car, as a result of this exchange, lands on Moon lake Bridge as a result of changing places, does not place a marker on the board, but he may, on his next turn, take the Detour if he wishes.
Passing Start:
Whenever a player's car lands on or passes over the last space before "Start," he may place a marker on any vacant circle on a board. He then continues to follow the regular path around the board.
Winning the Game:
Players continue the move their cars around the board and to place markers on the circles until one player succeeds in placing five markers in a row on any one of the eight sites. That players has discovered Nancy's whereabouts and wins the game.

War Time Editions
Since Memorial Day is coming up I thought now might a good time to do a bit on our favorite girl Nancy Drew during War Time and what to look for in your book hunting!
During WW2 many book publishers were hit HARD by the demands of war and at the time the Statemeyer Syndicate were no different. As explained in, Girl Sleuth: Nancy Drew and the Women Who Created Her by Melanie Rehak, Statemeyer were forced to give up all their original printing plates for Scrap metal. At the start of 1942 book publishers could only use so much paper, 90% to start which eventually dropped to 75% in by 1944. Britain’s publishers suffered worse restrictions. As a result Grosset & Dunlap was forced to be printed on what is called “Pulp Paper” which grows VERY brittle and browns over time. It was much cheaper than normal paper at the time. It also was not as thick as normal paper and so a normal Nancy Drew book is about 2in in 1941 but by 1942 it had decreased to 1in.
Bellow is an example of paper quality which is very typical of pulp paper. As well as an example in the difference. “Secret of Shadow Ranch” on the Left having normal paper. And Lilac Inn on the Right has “Pulp Paper.”
Also during this time the cover boards will have a slight change. The quality obviously was forced to cut corners. To the Left bellow is a 1930′s edition of Shadow Ranch before the restrictions and to the right is the comparison.
Also During this time the classic heels and scarf changed from a more 1930′s look to the second flats silhouette in 1947. The Tweed cover soon following.
One last Tidbit to look out for when collecting these little secret gems is the infamous “disclaimer” which appeared printed on the inside front page, which reads:
“This book, while produced under wartime conditions, in full compliance with government regulations for the conservation of paper and other essential materials, is COMPLETE AND UNABRIDGED.”
What is very interesting is that during War time the sales of these books were said to have continued and even rose!
So there you have it Sleuths! These are ALWAYS Fun to look for, as a memorabilia of a time passed!

NANCY DREW MEME - [1/1] QUOTE - "IT'S LOCKED"
Locked doors and objects are common themes in the Nancy Drew book and game series. At some point during the mystery, Nancy must figure out how to get into or out of a room using various objects including keys, lock picking kits, coat hangers, credit cards, and sometimes brute force. Those who play the Nancy Drew computer games are very familiar with the two little words “it’s locked,” as whenever Nancy tests a door that cannot be opened, she will utter them in a disappointed tone or, depending on how many times you have tested the door, monotone.

Finding out there's a fandom for the HeR Interactive Nancy Drew games has been a fucking blessing

James Penvellyn was apparently a little lad who loves berries and cream.
Also what we know about him amounts to:
•Flamboyant
•Never Married
•Found a random baby at 66 to raise as his own
•Dramatically died (aged 90) when said child was burned as a witch 24 years later
•Was apparently an artist (based on the motto on his coat of arms Ars Longa), which you can clearly see from the…. Severed… head…. In his portrait?
Conclusion: James Penvellyn was potentially the 17th Century’s more interesting gay man
