Description: Celluloid dog head for pencil top with movable disk that shows heart, diamond, club or spade as a suit sorter. It fits onto a pencil for scoring. The vintage pencil comes with it. Celluloid dog's mouth is open to show suit, and the disk moves in order to change it. This is used for a game of playing cards but we know nothing about bridge. This item was hard/impossible to find, which is why we sound clueless here. BREAKING NEWS: A lovely eBayer from Over There filled us in on what this is: But wait: seller note: This DOES have an N/T for NOTRUMPS ... so are we back to bridge? I'll find out. In the meantime, here's what expert said: this was for WHIST, first codified by Hoyle in 1742 and the intellectual card game of choice until about 1900. it spawned BRIDGE, AUCTION BRIDGE and the current CONTRACT BRIDGE. WHIST had no BIDDING; BRIDGE GAMES do. BRIDGE games added NOTRUMPS to the 4 suits, usually shortened to NT on markers, and this is the easiest way to distinguish between WHIST and BRIDGE markers. all the bridge games added NOTRUMPS
