EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a fascinating piece of history - the board game "NELLIE BLY". Inspired by the incredible journey of journalist Nellie Bly, who embarked on a trip around the world in 1889-90, this board game takes players on an adventurous and educational ride. The game features squares representing each of the 73 days of Nellie Bly's groundbreaking expedition. With vivid images depicting Bly herself, alongside notable figures like Jules Verne, a steamship, and a train, it immerses players in the spirit of exploration that defined this era. Published in the esteemed New York World newspaper on January 26th, 1890, this board game captures both the excitement and curiosity that surrounded Nellie Bly's daring endeavor. As one navigates through each square and relives her remarkable journey step by step, they are transported back to a time when travel was more than just reaching destinations; it was about discovering new cultures and pushing boundaries. With its intricate design and historical significance, this unique artifact serves as a testament to Nellie Bly's indomitable spirit as well as her contribution to journalism. It is not merely a source of entertainment but also an invaluable window into late 19th-century American society.
