Patricia found the neatest set of cocktail napkins from 1954 at an estate sale last weekend. Each napkin has a different party game on it, along with a great color graphic. I will show you more of our estate sale finds on Friday, but here are the fun games from the napkins! (We'll be trying a few of these out at some of our smaller parties!) Click on the photo's to make them larger and easier to read.
(Place Kicker)
(Newspaper Crumbling)
(Broomstick Balance)
(Bottle Bombing)
(Blind Feeding Blind)
(Mirror Writing)
(Card Pass)
(Much-Ado-Over-Necking)
(Pick Me Up)
(Spilled Peanuts)
What fun, inexpensive games!

Fun! Make sure you document and share when you get a chance to play those games:-) I have a couple of vintage napkins that Magpie Ethel gave me that I want to display in Alex's bathroom. Aside from framing them, I don't know what else to do. You need to display those beauties somehow! The graphics are too cool not to get to look at all the time.

How cute! I think it's hilarious that they're all dressed in swanky evening clothes and playing these games.
What a great find, Mick/Patricia! Those were the simpler days...look at how they entertained themselves before the onslaught of social media.
Love them! I just spent over an hour Googling vintage napkins last week. Didn't see these. & yup - agree with Erica - hope you blog about the games!
Love finding stuff like this! Hey mick, will you try posting on my blog and see if it lets you leave a comment??
Ha! These are fantastic! I want to see the Blind Feeding the Blind game in action. Just don't let enyone place a drink on those napkins!
