Monday 17 June 1963, Bunker Hill Day (Boston), 168th day - 197 days to come

At Macy's saw HIGH GEAR (Mattel) (See picture in March '63 Playthings)

    Each player has four pegs he must move along the gears, starting with the one on the right and finally reaching the white "high gear".
    Players in turn place a peg in the gear at "start" and then spin the spinner on top of the drive gear. Whichever number is spun can be "dialed" on the drive gear by putting finger in that number on either side of gear and moving the gear to a post (on far side that does not show up in picture). A player may "dial" less than the number spun.
    When after dialing a peg is on a tooth (or root) that is directly lined up with the next gear (see gear 1 & 2 in picture) the peg advances to the next gear.
