Did you get it right?
One mallet has a material that does not fit this 1960s backyard croquet set.

The Answer
The correct answer is: the modern molded black foam grip on the boy’s mallet.
Here is why
- The other mallets have plain, smooth wooden handles.
- The boy near the center-right holds a mallet wrapped in a thick black molded grip.
- The grip’s soft material and finger-shaped contours are the detail that does not belong.
Why people miss it
The grip is dark and narrow, and the eye is drawn first to the bright lawn, balls, and smiling players.
