Great Fishing Contest. New Magnetic Fishing Game with Surprises. JFJ [Jeux et Jouets Français]. (Paris, circa 1905). Grand Concours de Pêche. New Magnetic Fishing Game with Surprises. JFJ [Jeux et Jouets Français]. (Paris, circa 1905). Wood-cardboard box, size 44 x 35 x 12 cm. Color lithograph on the entire lid: fishing contest on a village river, children in boats try their luck, officials congratulate under the municipal tent, the orchestra plays, encouraged by the ducks. A chromolithographed tray is fixed in the box, which also contains: a cardboard box (lithograph on the lid depicting fishing utensils), size 9 x 36.5 x 2.5 cm, containing six fishing rods with magnets as hooks; a second box (lithograph showing children fishing in a pond) containing fish and fishing tackle, six fishing permits numbered 1 to 6, a wicker basket with counters. The ruler is glued to the back of the lid. Game of skill. The board represents a pond, pierced by slots into which fish and fishing objects are slid, with only the metal rings visible to catch them; each object bears a different number. Each player, one after the other in the order of the license numbers, tries to catch a fish or what they believe to be a fish, the winner being the player with the best catch. An attractive fishing game, the lithographs on the lids and board are particularly well done.
