Dippy Party Game Charades, 1928-1940

01

Artifact Overview

In this game of charades a player chooses a stunt from the punchboard. The player then performs the stunt (without talking) while other partygoers try to guess what the stunt is. Failure to get the others to correctly guess, as the instructions relate, makes the actor a "Dippy." That player then must "entertain [the other partygoers] as requested."
