Jury Box (game)

The Jury Box is a 1937 parlor game, created by Roy Post and published by Parker Brothers, that was popular in the United States in the late 1930s.

[1] The game was manufactured in Canada by The Copp Clark CO., Limited, Toronto, under license by Parker Brothers Inc. in Salem, Massachusetts.

[citation needed] For each case, the players act as individual members of a jury trying to determine whether the defendant is either guilty or innocent using the evidence provided to them.

The District Attorney is given the printed story, the photographs related to the crime, and a solution sealed in an envelope.

While considering their solutions, players are not allowed to talk to each other; those violating this rule lose fifty points.
