Marble maze from Hasbro. Very neat toy that I remember from my youth. Both my brother and I had one of these and we got so good at it that we eventually used to see not if we could get to the end but how many times we could run the marble all the way through the maze both forward and backwards. Item number 2620, there is no date on the package but I have to think it is from the early 1960s. This plastic maze was mated with untold numbers of different cardboard backings to make different themed mazes, my copy is kinda generic fantasy with the Giant's Castle, Blood Lake, Man Eating Plants, etc. The ones my brother and I had I believe were Outer Space/Space Travel themed.
A company called Schylling apparently now owns the rights to the Marble Maze
and is producing the Route 66 version shown below. It comes in a blister pack
with a vintage looking bricked cardboard surround. No date or item number but I received this copy
for Christmas in 2006. You can still buy the maze through
Amazon.com as of this writing.
Other marble mazes in my collection: Belly-Ache by Kohner, Crazy Maze by Lakeside, Fascination (two player maze race game) and Fascination Pool by Remco, Skill-It and Tilt 'N Roll by Milton Bradley.
