Description

Loto à caches France, circa 1860 Loto à caches (France, circa 1860). Varnished mahogany box, size 21 x 11.5 x 16 cm; light fillet framing on top; two small closing hooks on front. The interior is divided into two compartments: one contains 24 game cards, size 18.3 x 10 cm, with metal covers and metal rods for lifting the covers; the other contains 90 numbered boxwood pieces. French lotto game from the Napoleon III period. This is a concealed version of the classic lotto game. There are four sets of six game cards (blue, green, yellow or red rectos); each card is divided into squares, fifteen of which are numbered. These numbered squares have two numbers: one at the top is printed in a large body, the other at the bottom is printed in a small body; between the two numbers is a metal cover that can be folded over either one. When a number is drawn from the bag, the player whose number appears on one of his cards folds back the cover with a metal rod and covers the large number, while the uncovered small number serves as a reminder. A fine example, but as always, some covers are missing (26/36).
