1934 "Mental Whoopee" Game Pages (6) from Original Game by Jerome S. Meyer...

Description: Six original pages rescued from an old incomplete game titled "Mental Whoopee" by Jerome S. Meyer. Original full game box included 10 sets of 7 party games to "keep parties going till the Milkman Comes." Included are: Concentration Whoopee; The Tea Party; Observation Whoopee (2 pages); The Plumber Made A Mistake; Memory Whoopee. Each of the six pages are the originals from the game -- no copies. I have several sets of these pages available, but did not have the full 10 sets of 7 games to offer it as complete. Games seem very interesting and several are somewhat challenging. Each of the pages measure 7 7/8" x 9 7/8". I'll place them in a plastic sleeve and secure between two pieces of white foam core for USPS First Class mailing in a bubble envelope. The following information is offered to prospective buyers, and came from the back of the game box: Mental Whoopee - Fourth Series - Price, $1.00. These Whoopees test your observation, concentration and sense of deduction in novel and painless ways. They are most fun when played by six or more people. After you have selected the Whoopee you want to platy first, give each player a sheet from that Whoopee and supply him with a pencil. Inasmuch as each Whoopee is played as a competitive game, all the players must start at the same time and therefore must be cautioned not to read the directions until everyone is ready. The player who is finished first shouts "whoopee," which puts him first in line as winner if his paper is correct. The other players continue until three more shout "whoopee," and the Whoopee is then over, note being taken of the order in which the four players have finished. The answers are then read and the four players check their papers. Accuracy counts more than speed and consequently the first one of the four who is most accurate wins. The person who reads the correct answers upon the completion of each Whoopee should be the only one who has access to the answers. Never let the players see the answers until they have finished all the Whoopees they are going to play. If several of these Whoopees are played at one time, it is suggested that more than four players be allowed to finish and individual time scores be kept. The answer to all Whoopees will be found on one sheet in the box. -- Well, that's the interesting part -- there was no answer page in the box, so players and buyers of these pages are on their own!! Just a wonderful look at the simplicity of a game of 1934 versus the gaming world we find ourselves living in today! Other info on the back of the game box: Simon and Schuster, 386 Fourth Avenue, New York, N. Y.; Copyright, 1934, by Jerome S. Meyer.
