Thanks...i think the creative minds in this great game of ours today are awesome....but the old original tudor players and games from the late 60s and early 70s are what has always been my interest....i try to focus and represent that era ....i number my favorite players of that era....i guess thats the greatest thing about this hobby ...it is so diverse and we can all head in opposite directions and still be satisfied with our collections and focus.

It should be a blue endzone game and was marketed in the north and midwest ....much would depend on the condition like mentioned before....the game should have 1969 hogleg vikings in white and packers in dark....the more popular and more produced version would have the rams vs the cowboys.......the afc version would have been the gold endzone browns vs jets in honor of the first monday night football game on abc....in my experience the game in good shape would probably sell on ebay for 100 to maybe 150 on a good day....probably the most valuable of the old tudor big 620s would be the super bowl III ( jets vs colts ) ...super bowl IV ( vikings and chiefs ) ....and the mid 70s championship boards that featured 4 teams...the old grass endzone browns vs giants games of the late 60s were the best running boards ......good luck

74 bob lilly of the cowboys ....30 ron johnson and 45 homer jones for the giants.....32 walt garrison of the cowboys...38 bob tucker for the giants

31 Jim taylor and 63 fuzzy thurston for the packers.....40 gale sayers of the bears..41 brian piccolo of the bears and 71 alex karras of the lions trail........30 bill brown for the vikings ...a few steps behind is 87 willie davis for the packers....41 dave osborn and 84 gene washington of the vikings are behind the play too.

on a kickoff....the receiving team can start with their runner on the 2...the first line of receiving team is on the 50....tje kickoff team is lined on their own 40...i have found this opens up the game and allows for good field position and helps the score be realistic considering their is only 40 plays total in a game...the kickoffs...extra points...punts all count as a play too.

I just thought id share the way i play solitaire....a game will typically take me an hour to hour and half at most....i play 10 plays per qt....i use a regular dice ( 1-6) ...for passes...field goals and punts ...examples ...to complete a pass u have to roll 4 or better to an open receiver....if you roll a 1 it is an interception to the closest defender to the intended receiver.....a punt is simply the rolled number of the dice ...3 = 30 yd punt....etc.....field goals are same way....punts and fg is measured from the line of scrimmage not the kicker.....each offensive play ...i determine run or pass at the start...i like to run and typically just pass on 3rd down or if the team is behind...but u can pass on any down....i run 1 back spread offense....straight t ....or 2 back....i sometimes get creative on pass plays ( formation wise ) but only 4 men can be behind the line on offense ......on a pass play the qb can drop back 15 yds and can be turned 1 time...the pass must b called before he gets to the line...i stop the game and roll the dice...if i roll a 4 or better and the rec is not touched on completion then i turn the game on and finish the play....typically scores are something like 21 to 17 on average....and again it takes about an hour to hour and a half to play...because it is pretty much straight ahead football and no fancy loops or twists.

Hello to all....just wanted to stop in and say what a great hobby electric football is and has been for me for 50 years now. My passion has always been for the old original tudor classics from the late 1960s and early 70s....BUT i also admire the innovators of the modern game and new products that are still going strong like you find here at the modern tudor games. Keep up the good work and new ideas and innovations....thanks for your time ...charles ( capanther ) angell : capanther.tripod.com .... Feel free to visit my site i built about 20 years ago that focuses on the history of this great game of ours.
