Vintage 1969 Barnaby Collins Dark Shadows Board Game - $60 (https://denver.craigslist.org/tag/6024107760.html)

Barnaby? Ok. I don't know if the person can't read, is lazy, or is possibly blind, which might be about the only reason that would be forgivable when "Barnabas" is clearly in big letters on the box - not to mention in the description below...

"Rare 1969 Barnabas Collins Dark Shadows Game by Milton Bradley

$60 Cash Only

It's also interesting that the fangs don't seem to appear in any of the photos, so beware...

I had the Barnaby Collins game when I was a kid.  Instead of fangs, it had dentures, and when you won, your mother became Lee Meriwether.

I've only seen the name "Barnaby" used in reference to our dear Mr. Collins a couple of times--once infamously in an issue of the Gold Key comic.  "Barnabus" is the one that will just not go away.  I always thought the Barnabus was the Collins family's VW van...

I used to hear Barnaby Collins a great deal in the 70s and 80s when Barnaby Jones was still fresh in people's minds.

I'm waiting to see "Barnybus" show up somewhere.  Does that mean he would be purple and immensely annoying?
