Games of skill, and conjuring: including draughts, dominoes, chess, morrice
A Victorian household handbook of indoor amusements—draughts, dominoes, chess, morrice, card tricks and conjuring—issued by George Routledge and Sons in London and New York in 1865 for family and parlour readers. The 78 wood-engraved figures are small, high-contrast line diagrams: fanned playing cards with hatched pips, rigged sailboat profiles, and gridded board layouts with solid dots, useful as instructional marks, icons, and pattern units.
