Vintage Bible Games

For decades and maybe centuries, games, puzzles, and other forms of instructional fun have existed to teach the Bible. Over time I have come across a number of examples. Here are two examples.
Lemon's Bible Game was distributed by Zomdervan Publishing House for decades. This box is the eleventh edition from 1946 and it features up to a dozen games that can be played with the cards.
The maker of this small "True or False Quiz" is unknown.
