Some of the cards used in the original edition of the Glass Plate Game.

The Glass Plate Game is basically a conversation in the trappings of a board game. Adrian Wolfe and I designed it following a class I instigated in 1976. Pieces are used to map, against a mosaic, the conversation as players find and discuss connections between ideas represented by various regions of the mosaic. In the sets there are "idea cards" for composing the mosaic, then numbered cubes and colored transparencies for pieces tracking the conversation.

Note:  The above descriptive information came from the game's home page.
