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:
““The ideal reasoner,” he remarked, “would, when he had once been shown a single fact in all its bearings, deduce from it not only all the chain of events which led up to it but also all the results which would follow from it.””
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
“...I had grown up in a world that was dominated by immature age. Not by vigorous immaturity, but by immaturity that was old and tired and prudent, that loved ritual and rubric, and was utterly wanting in curiosity about the new and the strange. Its era has passed away, and the world it made has crumbled around us. Its finest creation, a code of manners, has been ridiculed and discarded.”
—Ellen Glasgow (1873–1945)
