I am looking for the name of a detective game from the early 1960s..?

Question

First let me say it is not Clue. I dont remember the name but it had a small black box that you could slid a picture card into and push a stylus into a hole on the box and it would buzz if you had guessed the right card. It was very popular in the early 1960s. I have already tried E-bay and found nothing but clue games. As I said it is not any sort of Clue by parker brothers. I know this is a long shot but maybe someone out there knows of the name or where I could look for it. Thanks a million.

Answer 1

LIE DETECTOR!!!!!

My mom hung on to hers from when she was a kid and I played it ALL the time. I'm now hanging onto it for my kids. Haha it's hiding up in my closet, I think I might have to get that down and make my roommates play with me this weekend!

Answer 2

Lynzee is right but I would like to add that the game was originally published by Mattel and later renamed "Spy Detector" to cash in on the James Bond craze. Pressman Toys republished it and eliminated all references to smoking.
