Helicopter Race Game

This game by Warren Paper Products Company was released sometime in the 50's and was capitalizing on children's fascination with a relatively new mode of transportation - the helicopter. The players race along a track spanning a map of the US, starting in California, hitting the Atlantic seaboard, and then racing back to California for the exciting finish. Movement is controlled with a spinner. Pieces include a game board, 4 tokens of different colors that look like a head and shoulders, a spinner, a card board holder for the bits, and the box top and bottom. Instructions for the game are on the board.
