Description

In the Bromfield household, card games occurred regularly. The Johnson Card Shuffler streamlined the game play. Several types of automatic card shufflers were produced during the 1940s and 1950s. Chicago based Nestor Johnson Mfg Co produced this one and others like it. According to advertisements, two shuffles with their machine would create a better mix than shuffling by hand.
