New Monster Old Maid cards!
« on: February 25, 2018, 01:01:10 PM »
I'm making my own brand new set of Monster Old Maid cards using the same colors as the original set. I'm going to include everyone in this massive set, from Universal, to Hammer, Godzilla to AIP.
From the 1920's to the 1970's

100 different monsters in a 200 card set!

Love it! I would love to see these produced, with creative, new box art.

Those are heart-stopping images you've chosen so far. If any extra
decks become available, deal me in!

I'm not making these to sell or anything...just for myself, but anyone who wants them can save the images and print them out on card stock for themselves.

I might mess with them a little more...jazz up the borders a bit, add card numbers as Mike Scott suggested. Also, I have to design a new card back too.

I really like what you're doing with this set. I'm sorry to hear you won't be manufacturing them for sale, but am thankful that you're okay with people printing up a set from your designs. I loved the original game when I was a kid and was pleased to see it remembered here at this site.

. . add card numbers as Mike Scott suggested.

I never played the original game, but I figured the numbers were there for a reason.  ;D

IDK...after all, you're only matching the pictures...but some numbers might jazz 'em up a bit.

Numbers are important to make it "educational", after all it is a game marketed to children.  Cards with numbers are more likely to be bought by the average parents than cards that just teach kids names of monsters.

Here's a link to the original instructions explaining the numbers and how one becomes the Old Maid:

If I posted this before forgive me! I thought I had but I didn't see it in the thread. Nothing like getting old-ha ha
