About This Item
Mexico: Test. de A. Vanegas Arroyo, 1910. Very good.. Broadside, approximately 16 x 10.75 inches. A couple of small nicks at edges. Light toning and dust soiling. A scarce sheet of Mexican paper game pieces featuring illustrations by José Guadalupe Posada. "Although the rules are not given, this game appears to be a type of draw game similar to the French 'jeu de lonterie.' Here a sheet containing a number of small images is cut into individual squares, which are then drawn from a hat and matched up with corresponding numbered pieces. The 'juego de lotería' has, like its French counterpart, a pedagogical value in that it associates the names and pictures of familiar animals, symbols, and persons. Images from Mexican folklore, like the calavera, diablo, and coyote, are notable inclusions" -- Tyler. A scarce survivor; we locate just a small number of intact copies.
