Game of chance in the form of a cottage

Description

Pure chance decides the success: the course of the ball inside the little house and the value obtained cannot be influenced. On the gable one reads "Hieronymus Bischoff, the first Jenner 1805". At that time gifts were given on New Year's Day, not Christmas,
presented.
