What are some of your favorite prize wedges?
I could've swore at one time, I found on this site some prize wedges for Florida, New Orleans, Las Vegas, and Shopping Spree like the ones used on the show but I can't seem to find them anywhere now.
Anyway, those are 4 of my favorites. I wish I could find them again. Maybe I was just dreaming.
I love the art the show uses on these wedges. It's very metropolitan and classy.

The classic wedges from 1983-1996. Green with black Clarendon lettering. Those, and the daytime Jackpot wedge from 1987. Guess you could say I'm a retro kid.

I thought they didn't use Clarendon until the 1996 switchover... what did they use for the 1983-1996 style?

Well, if I had some favorite prize wedges (apart from that fun Surprise wedge that everyone misses), one of them would be one for a cruise, especially the modern graphic one showing a cruise ship's bow. Being the big ocean liner and cruise ship buff that I am, that's an obvious choice. I don't know if there were any Prize wedges offering a trip to Chicago, but if there were, that'd be another favorite of mine. And then, there's one marked Collect. For those who don't already know why, it'd be because I'm proud to have it be part of my "Collect"-ion. I'd love to see an episode where it was used, but if I recall correctly, I think it was used in a Season 12 episode. germanname.deviantart.com/art/The-Real-Wheel-Collector-500561499 |
