Electric Football has a lot of great “pieces.” And we think some of the coolest pieces in all of Electric Football are the Tudor Rule Books. In fact, they were a large part of our inspiration for our upcoming  Full Color Electric Football book.

In this post we’re going to examine in detail a 1979 Tudor Rule Book. One of the most important things for any rule book is being able to figure out what year its from. Some of the early Rule Books make it obvious with a price list of “Fine Tudor Products” that has the year. Unfortunately, later versions aren’t so obvious. But there is one sure place where you can find the date of your Rule Book.

Look for the Copyright on the inside cover. This will accurately date your Rule Book. As you can see in the bottom left hand corner this page says “Copyright 1979.” Some Rule Books have multiple years listed. The most recent year will be the date of the Rule Book.

Now for the good stuff, the color NFL pages. There are four pages in the 1979 Rule Book. This one unfortunately, has some water damage, but it still works!!
