Loto comique. M.-D. [Mauclair-Dacier] Publisher, Paris (circa 1900) Loto comique. M.-D. [Mauclair-Dacier] Publisher, Paris (circa 1900). Wood-cardboard box, size 29.5 x 36 x 5.8 cm. On the lid, a gilded, embossed frame delimits a rectangular space on a crimson background, featuring the title in gilded letters and a pasted-on chromolithograph showing children playing marbles on a sidewalk in front of a hairdresser's store. The interior is divided into six compartments, each containing: twice six chromolithographed cardboards, oblong format 15 x 19 cm / seventy-two cardboard discs, chromolithographed on each side, 3.3 cm in diameter / a wicker basket / an empty cloth bag / a cloth bag containing bone tokens. The ruler is glued to the back of the lid. Classic picture lotto game. On the front of each card is a comic scene (three on the theme of circuses and funfairs, three street scenes, a country lunch, a fishing trip, a family missing the train, a monkey lunch, a portrait session in an artist's studio, a photographer in the middle of a field); six circular slots have been die-cut into each scene, interrupting it and revealing the image of an object (comb, domino, bottle, watering can...). Each of the objects depicted on the cardboard cut-outs is matched by a cardboard disc, with the object depicted on one side and the scene fragment removed on the other. The game is based on the principle of lotto: all the discs are placed in a bag, the cards are distributed among the players, the leader draws a disc and names the object represented, which is then claimed by the player who has the corresponding card; each disc placed allows the missing part of the scene to be reconstituted, and the winner is the player who has completed his card(s). The game can also be used as an elementary puzzle for younger players. Beautifully crafted lotto published by Mauclair-Dacier; in perfect condition. Provenance handwritten on the back of the cover (Maman / Janvier 1904).
