Description

Wood rectangle with paper front and back; frontis multi-color printed and has series of holesin an overlay against plain tan base; top of front has images of 3 jockeys riding horses and lettering revealing game is called "Bang Tails"; wood sides painted bright red. Some sort of gambling game that cost a nickel per play with a pay off ranging from 10c to $25.00; had to first punch a hole under the win place or show horse and this somehow indicated next move which in turn determined if there was any pay off; no instructions found with game so unclear exactly of rules
