"A new game which brings all the thrills of the stock market into every home. Easy to learn, fascinating to play, with the greatest ready-made market that has ever greeted a piece of merchandise. The stock market is in everyone's mind and on everyone's tongue. Every day the newspapers give it additional publicity. The public imagination is already fired with the desire to play the market, and "STOCK EXCHANGE" will catch like wildfire."

Yeah, right. This company only made 1 game and this was it. Just about the time they are trying to get this game on store shelves, the stock market tanks - enter the Great Depression. Good timing, guys. Probably won't see many of these. I'm not sure this is even a regular game, more a salesman's sample of the game. Cool!
