There may be a Japanese version and a Spanish version as well.
1971 seems to be similar to 1962. ??
There seem to be 6 distinct versions (not counting language or card back variations):
- the orignal design of Du Jardin; this seems to be the same as the original 1962 PB release
- (except, of course, that the original version didn't have English translations)
- a moderne version released sometime in the 1970s
- a pseudo-photo-realistic version released by Winning Moves
- a version released by Schmidt-Spill under the name 1000 km etc.
- "40th Anniversary Edition"
- "Ruta", which seems to be a Mexican knock-off

Parker Brothers was acquired by Hasbro in 1991.
