Ideal Era (1974)
Ideal issued a version of the game in 1974 with a picture of host Peter Marshall on the box; this was the first of the adaptations to featured humorous gag names for the celebrities. This game was more true to the TV show than the earlier version (without money and "Secret Square" rules); which contains a cardboard game board with two plastic stands, five each of plastic X's and O's, a deck of 56 double-sided question cards (numbered 1-9 on each card) with nine questions on each side with a card holder.

Famous quotes containing the words ideal and/or era:
“It’s an ideal house for delirium tremens.”
—Dodie Smith, and Lewis Allen. Rick Fitzgerald (Ray Milland)
“Erasmus was the light of his century; others were its strength: he lighted the way; others knew how to walk on it while he himself remained in the shadow as the source of light always does. But he who points the way into a new era is no less worthy of veneration than he who is the first to enter it; those who work invisibly have also accomplished a feat.”
—Stefan Zweig (18811942)
