The Game
Title: Trivial Pursuit: Genus II Edition (Subsidiary Card Set for Use with Master Game)
Publisher: Horn Abbot Ltd.

Historical Context
Trivial Pursuit was invented in 1979 by Canadian journalists Scott Abbott and Chris Haney, and first marketed in 1981. The original Genus Edition (1981/1983) became a runaway hit, sparking a craze in the mid-1980s. By 1984, the game had sold over 20 million copies and was a household staple.
The Genus II Edition was introduced in 1984 as the first expansion pack, offering a new set of questions while still requiring the original game board and playing pieces. Subsidiary card sets like this one allowed families to refresh their gameplay without buying an entirely new box set.
Every piece is packed with professional-grade materials: multiple foam layers, double-boxing, directional and fragile handling labels. For large furniture we use custom timber crating. We photograph packing before dispatch and can provide images on request.
White-glove delivery is complimentary within 100 miles of Reno, NV. National shipping quotes provided at checkout. All shipments are photographed and documented. Damage claims must be filed with the carrier; we provide all documentation needed to support your claim.
Local pickup is available at Viridian HQ (Reno, NV) with 2–4 days notice. Contact us to arrange. Private viewings also available.
All antique and vintage items are sold as described and all sales are final. Each listing includes detailed condition notes and photographs so you can make a fully informed decision. We encourage buyers to ask questions — about condition, dimensions, finish, provenance — before purchasing.
Antiques are irreplaceable and one-of-a-kind. Carrier handling is outside our control once a piece has left our facility, and major carriers including FedEx do not insure antiques. We do everything within our power to ensure safe transit, but cannot accept liability for carrier damage. If damage occurs in transit, we will provide full documentation to support your carrier claim.
