The JOY Of TRIVIA Hardback book with Dust Jacket by Bernie Smith Copyright © 1976 by Bernie Smith " The Trivia Game turned out to be not so trivial after all - it's become more of an institution than a fad. It unites partygoers and other strangers as certainly as a common friend. We're all trivia freaks. Try not to come up with the answers to these: What is the order of the colors in a package of 5-flavor lifesavers ? What was the name of Tonto's horse ? What does one say to a robot named Gort who is about to destroy the world ? What are the real names of the Smith Brothers ? Of Wolfman Jack ? Of the Shadow ? What were the last words of Frankenstein's monster ? What is the name of Joe Palooka's fat friend who drove a bicycle with a house on it ? Who held the No. 1 aviation license ? What was written on the Mad Hatter's hat ? What is the capital of Guatemala ? For how long is a U.S. patent in effect ? What movie was Marilyn Monroe working on when she died ? These and countless other questions about sports, the movies, comics, rock 'n roll groups, TV, radio and much more.
