Abstract:

A perpetual seal card game in which players purchase individual play cards and reveal indicia covered by removable covers. Indicia on the individual play cards indicate whether the player is an instant winner, continues playing as a challenging player or has lost the game. If the player is an instant winner, he receives a prize and is finished playing the game. If the player is a challenging player, he has an opportunity to challenge the prior games winner. The challenging players identify themselves on a seal card containing a challenging player identification area and predetermined challenger indicia concealed by a removable cover. Once all of the challenging players have identified themselves, the predetermined challenger indicia is disclosed identifying the player who will challenge the prior games winner. A second seal card, containing concealed indicia identifying the winner of the game, is used to determine the winner of the game. The cover concealing one of the indicia from the second seal card is removed to disclose the winner of the game.

Abstract:

A display for displaying an image to a viewer, capable of highlighting specific locations selected by a user. This display comprises: a) a punchable layer such as a foam board having a first surface and a second surface, b) an image affixed to the first surface of the punchable layer. The punchable layer and the image form a sandwich dubbed display cover which is partially transparent and is observed by a viewer located on the image side of the display cover, c) a light source illuminating the second surface of the punchable layer, d) a piercing means for enabling the user to punch at least one hole into the punchable layer, and e) a plurality of pegs equal in number to the number of holes. The pegs are longer than the thickness of the display cover and furthermore are significantly more translucent than the display cover, such that when inserted into the holes by the user, they operate as light pipes and channel light generated by the light source, across the display cover, and scatter light toward the viewer, thereby allowing the pegs to operate as highlighters over the lesser illuminated display cover.
