Hidden Book Titles

0–0 players · 0 min

This title includes three series of rebus-puzzle type cards. The cards were large, about 7.25" x 4.5", with a series of images on the front and a number on the back. The back of each card also included the copyright and publication date (October 1899).

The series were sold separately, with the Series A box including 30 cards and the Series B and C boxes holding only 15 each. Each box included a sheet with all the correct answers.

The cards were sold as a competitive party game, with guests vying to see who could name the most book titles correctly as the cards were displayed. For instance, the answer to a card showing two babies playing followed by a squashed capital A was Innocents Abroad.
