1957
Erich invented Traffic Safety Bingo to teach his daughter to keep an eye out for important signs. Following its success, The Travel Bingo Assortment was born.
He also humorously referred to Auto Bingo as the first “Radar Detector,” helping children to be on the lookout for police officers
Erich's last invention was the Easy Read Finger-Tip Bingo Card as it made it easier for seniors to see the larger numbers in his assisted living center.
