About this game
This is a simple roll-and-move game, apparently self-published by Frank Prindle of San Francisco shortly after the Spanish-American War of 1898. The board appears to show a stylized view of the entrance to Santiago Bay, looking northeast to the San Juan and Kettle hills. The image shows naval action in the foreground, including a sunken Spanish ship, with land forces moving on both sides of the bay. The objective space (100) shows an American flag waving over a cloud-topped hill, presumably San Juan Hill.
