Description

Margie - "As seen on ABC TV!" Set in the Roaring Twenties, Margie lives with her parents and her aunt Phoebe. Her best friend, Maybelle Jackson, is a flapper, and Heywood and Johnny are the two boys fighting for her affection. To add to the period flavor of the show, there were mixed-in movie slides from silent movies that told audience members "Please Pay Attention," "The Plot Thickens," etc. at critical points in the show. Players keep traveling around the board from Madison High to Crawford's Ice Cream Parlor and back again. They obtain "Slogan" cards and "Word" cards. The "Slogans" (familiar expressions of the 1920's) are worth points for score when a player collects the right words to complete the "slogan". A player may also try to get all the letters to spell out or "make" the "Whoopee" card. The object of the game is to score 10 or more points by completing "Slogans" or to "Make Whoopee."
