Abstract

376,327. Word-making games. BUMFORD, P. H., Pen-y-bryn, Repton Road, Orpington, Kent. March 27, 1931, No. 9298. [Classes 132 (iii) and 146 (ii).] Apparatus for use in word-making games comprises two or more superposed discs C, D rotatable about a centre pin E on the baseplate A having a pointer B. The discs have words printed radially around their peripheries and are rotated to locate words, obtained from clue words, on each disc opposite the pointer B which together form another complete word, e.g. " pan " and " try together forming " pantry." The words marked upon the discs may be readily erasable whereby a different series of words may be substituted. The edges of the rotatable discs may be faceted to assist in their rotation. The game is of educational value to children and can be used in solving crossword puzzles. Reference has been directed by the Comptroller to Specification 325,593, [Class 146 (ii), Stationery &c.].
