Proposed Deletion

I'd consider this game to be as notable as most of the others that have articles from this era. Going through the list of games from "Category:Board games introduced in the 1970s", it looks like very few have much for references. But I would attribute that to how difficult it is to find references online for games from this era, as many of them have been out of print for years.

One of the articles I checked, The Great Train Robbery (board game), references an article from "Toy Retailing News" (a British trade journal). The book "The British Toy Business: A History Since 1700" lists this as well as many other newspapers, periodicals, and trade journals in its bibliography: https://books.google.com/books?id=5F8I-877spgC&lpg=PA268&pg=PA268. So I suspect that there are sources from this era that mention this game, it would just be a matter of tracking them down.

So if most of the other articles on board games from the 1970s are considered noteworthy enough for articles, then I believe this one would be too. But if the majority of these articles are not considered noteworthy, then maybe they could all be merged into some kind of list page instead of being deleted completely?
