The pre-20's version doesn't have a graphic on the back. The planchette (indicator) was wood, and there was no view hole in it.. it just pointed to stuff with the tip.There's some Ebay pics of the 1950's Ouija Board that might be useful to you.. or, since the guy is selling for $50, he might be willing to give you a better shot of the image you want if you ask him.. (assuming that's the one you want.. it's the "pre-Parker Brothers" version of that image). The wood planchette on this one is kinda' cool.. like an Old West advertisement.. and also has the view hole:<a href=\"http://cgi.ebay.com/1938-Mystifying-Oracle-The-Original-Ouija-William-Fuld_W0QQitemZ280455993489\" target=\"_blank\">http://cgi.ebay.com/1938-Mystifying-Oracle...emZ280455993489</a>The Parker Brothers version looks like they used a copy of that back of box artwork, but a less defined version, almost as though the people were "modernized" and redrawn to look younger and "hipper" compared to the earlier version. It has a raised plastic planchette, rather than wood too.. I beleive it's the 60's version because the 70's version has the photograph on the front, rather than the artwork it used to have there. <a href=\"http://cgi.ebay.com/ORIGINAL-VINTAGE-WILLIAM-FULD-OUIJA-BOARD-TABLE-BOX_W0QQitemZ150409008561\" target=\"_blank\">http://cgi.ebay.com/ORIGINAL-VINTAGE-WILLI...emZ150409008561</a>I have no idea what the new boxes have on the back of them now, but I'm guessing they won't be what you're looking for.<!--QuoteEnd</div><!--QuoteEEndHey, Deadguy. Thanks! I couldn't even find on that on ebay myself. Yes the 50's one is the image I'm looking for. The others are dumbed down and the new one is a photo. It's funny too because I've owned that 50's board about 12 times I just don't have it now at the time that I need it!
