Blockbusters - Rare Letter Slides Used On Show - Central ITV

A quick look at my some my set of Blockbusters slides, as used in the show on the game board - which I have no idea how it worked apart from it used a bank of slide projectors. Possibly more sought after than a Blockbusters sports shirt or dictionary. Open to offers! ;)

Does it have the full gameboard ? Blank colours too ?

@Gazzerdaman just got the letters and the odd stripey symbol!

maybe the next thing will be the letters and numbers cards from countdown

id love to have the red and white cards from 1989 that gave everyone epilepsy type fits!

on the blockbusters uk gameshows/wiki entry they have both gone to massive lengths to show how the I.T.V regions did whatever they liked with Blockbusters.

Reading it has reminded me how I.T.V really "pissed about" with Blockbusters and never gave the show the respect it deserved - quite often thinking that a certain unmentionable, and crappy aussie soap (like neighbours!) was more important.

@dddrum Ha, I wish! got them from ebay years ago

@rats9001 Perhaps sdaonline was a contestant on the show, and received them as "lovely parting gifts", with which they could play "the home version" of the game. That, or they went out to rent some videos, and got really mixed up..
