Jackpot: New archives will preserve history of game shows By Associated Press Share: ROCHESTER, N.Y. — It’s a jackpot for game show fans. The Strong National Museum of Play on Wednesday announced the creation of the National Archives of Game Show History, to be stocked with scripts, props, set designs and materials collected from game show performers, writers and executives. The project is co-founded by television producers Howard Blumenthal of “Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?” and Bob Boden of “Funny You Should Ask.” The idea has found early supporters in “Jeopardy!” champion-turned-guest host Ken Jennings and Wink Martindale, who spent decades guiding contestants through “Gambit,” “High Rollers,” “Tic-Tac-Dough” and “Debt.”
