This subseries contains information related to game development at Parker Brothers, including several of the company’s most popular board game titles. Draft game instructions and notes are housed within these folders.

This subseries holds some handwritten notes and miscellaneous reference papers from the estate of LeRoy Howard. There is one folder containing photographs (several are of Parker Brothers games; one is of Parker Brothers executives playing a game; and two photos depict LeRoy Howard with his wife, Frances).

This series contains instructions for games published between 1893 and 1952, with the bulk of the games from the 1920s through the 1940s. They have been arranged in alphabetical order, and when possible, dates have been identified based on the copyright date of the instructions. Parker Brothers manufactured the majority of these games, though products from several other companies appear. Some of the instructions have minor notations in Howard’s handwriting.
