Description

1 UNIT ONLY!

This game is between 120 and 150 years old!

Magnetic games refer to a category of games that use the magnetic property of magnets. They are very old since they have been published at the end of the 18th century.

This old vintage game is a little gem of a collector! This pretty cardboard box is a game from the house L Saussine éditions de Paris. The lid is decorated with a pretty illustration by Ludovic which represents a magician predicting the future to people in period outfits referring to a royal court.

Fortune Telling Game "L'oiseu Bleu", Magnetic Game (Magnet Box), Saussine Edit. Paris, undated [19th century].

Box decorated with colors inside and out (27 x 21.5 x 6 cm) containing a steering wheel (an arm with a hand, the finger extended) under glass indicating 8 small decorated boxes with lids (matchbox type - 5.2 x 3.7 x 1.5 cm) fixed on a base and containing the white answer cards (4 x 2.5 cm) + 2 decorated color palettes (decorated cardboard octagons, partitioned with questions, containing magnets; to be placed in the center of the game to trigger the spinning - 8 cm wide).

The principle, for which Léon SAUSSINE filed a patent in 1870, consists of matching questions with answers by placing magnets associated with a magnet on a pivot (Louis SAUSSINE was present at the Universal Exhibition of 1878).

Inside the cover, a laminated insert indicates: "To consult L'oiseu Bleu: you must place the palette right in the middle of the game, the chosen question facing the words: CÔTE DE LA DEMANDE. Immediately, the HAND will indicate the box that contains the correct answer. After having read it, place this answer under the others. 

Each small box contains its 6 small printed cards.

Very Old, the game is damaged and there are many signs of wear which gives it all its charm. A magnificent old game to collect!
