Notes: | On the backglass, the Seven of Clubs card incorrectly has eight pips (clubs) on it. This is not the first game to have gobble holes. Gottlieb and other manufacturers used them as far back as 1934. Designer Wayne Neyens told an audience at Chicago's Expo 2010 that 'Queen of Hearts' was his favorite of the games he designed. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
