Historical toys & parlour games (1892): Identify the ‘‘game’’ first produced by the Southern Novelty Company in Baltimore, Maryland. Context: Late 19th-century American novelty/game manufacturing tied to spirit-talking boards. Choose the correct game.

Given data

• Place: Baltimore, Maryland.
• Company: Southern Novelty Company (late 1800s).
• Year referenced: 1892.

Concept / Approach
Identify which widely known “game” aligns with Baltimore-based novelty makers of the era.

Reasoning
Talking boards branded as the Ouija board were produced and promoted out of Baltimore in the early 1890s, becoming a nationally popular parlor “game.”

Eliminating distractors
Monopoly (commercialized 1930s), Ping-pong (originated in England), Frisbee (mid-20th century) do not match the 1892 Baltimore context.

Final Answer
Ouija board.
