Description
This fun cartographic gambling device from the Interwar Period (formerly) incorporated a spinner and marble into a variety of fun games of chance. Text along the outer edges briefly describes several examples, including Roulette, Put and Take, and Play the Flags. Created by the Durable Toy Company of New York, probably in the early to mid-1920s. The omission of Germany is notable, as it reflects lingering postwar sentiments.

Condition Description: A beat up example, sadly lacking the all-important center dial. Several dings, scuffs, and areas of rusting. Still makes for a fun novelty.
