First patented in 1888 as "Tiddledy-Winks," the Victorian parlor game Tiddlywinks inspired many copycats. Which of these is NOT one of them?
Answer Poppy Pops
The Tiddledy-Winks distributor did not take kindly to his upstart competitors, warning on the game box that "proceedings will be taken against anyone infringing the Proprietors' Rights in this Game." The fine print also included an urgent warning for unsuspecting consumers to be vigilant against "worthless imitations... issued by unscrupulous and jealous persons."
