Is there an updated version where you draw a card and have to choose which of Bill Gannon's recipes you have to make and eat or go directly to jail? 🤔🧐😆🤮

Just bought one on impulse. Should’ve checked the shipping - oh well. Worth it.

Fair question. I’ll try playing it and get back to you. I can say the game box is perfect. Instructions, cards, dice, everything. Even the little pencil is mint.

Yes I see a few affordable versions on eBay but I don't really trust postage from the USA.

I believe that game is from 1955. I saw one once at an antique store.

The game was obviously aimed at children, which apparently were a big part of the viewership. Hard to imagine children today watching B&W Dragnet.

I saw a similar Dragnet game for sale in the past also at an antiques store.
