Electric Football (1948)

Most of you will recognize this old classic. It has been re-released several times since its 48' inception. Most of the re-releases revolved around alternate years Super Bowls with the players present from the respective teams ending up in that years game box. This game gave you all the players needed for a full football team on offense and defense and movement bases that allowed particular players to hopefully run particular routes. There was also the triple threat QB. He could pass, punt and kick your field goals. Earlier versions just included a little clicker type device to flip around the ball. Little felt football were included. Game field vibrated with an electric buzzer to set the players in motion. Set up your formations then turn the switch on and off accordingly, adjusting your players as the rules allowed. So what if the game is absolutely impossible to play? The components were enough to keep us all entertained and constantly wanting to pull it out.
