Another, similarly dressed pixie is sitting in front of the cup on a blue wink on the ground, with arms stretched behind him to the ground. A white rabbit appears just to the right of the cup. Two more pixies are shown at right, each with two hands on a large red squidger, looking at an orange wink in the air toward the cup. A blue wink is on top of a red wink below them. 2 mushrooms appear at left.

Rules on a yellow background with green, black, and red text.
The target consists of three pieces: a numbered target attached inside the box bottom, a box bottom build-up, and an injection-molded plastic cup.
The numbered target (5" by 3 1/2") has a 1" white circle at center marked "PLACE" above "CUP" above "HERE" in blue. Around the circle are semitriangular segments with numbers in white; clockeise from upper left: "1" on yellow; "6" on red; "4" on purple/blue; "2" on green; "5" on red; and "3" on light blue.
The box bottom build-up (4 3/8" by 3 1/4" by 1 1/8", smaller than the interior of the box bottom) had a circular hole (1 7/8" in diameter) and two "50" markings (white on red) at left and right from hole; the rest of the build-up is light blue with a white line rectangle and sharp-pointed triangles coming in on each corner.
The dark red and brown mottled cup (1 17/8" top diameter, 1 1/4" bottom diameter, 1 1/2" tall, with concave sides) is marked "BERWICK'S LIVERPOOL" around the top periphery of the bottom with "6" at bottom.
One copy of this game includes the following plastic squidgers and winks, with no burrs, most likely cut from rods and tumbled:
Squidgers (1 1/16" in diameter): 1 pea green; 1 dark green; 1 white; and 1 red.
Winks (9/16" in diameter): 3 pea green, 4 dark green, 3 red, and 5 yellow.
