Question
I played a games with friends back in the 80's and all I can remember is that it had big picture boards and each board had hundreds of different things on them and don't remember the object of the game but you had to pick out things that start with certain letters I think but not sure, each board must have been about 8-12" high by about 6" wide, please help me with the name, thanks.....

Greetings and Happy New Year Sal!

Makin me work so early in the new year...I love ya!   And.....as i shake my little think tank...well, I think its coming up with the name of the game you are seeking.   It sounds a bit like Scrutineyes....but that wasn't around in the 80's that I know of???   It could have been redone or something??  Anyhow, I am sending you a links to look at and hopefully it is the game you are seeking.  Well, the think tank says it is so it's got to be right, right?   :-)    I've actually played Scrutineyes...it has big picture boards and several different baords as you mentioned.   Have a look:
