An interesting early religious entertainment or 'game' consisting of hand-written Bible scripture cards in a box. It is likely the idea was to pick one card, reflect on the nature of the verse and to apply this to daily life. Because of the perishable nature of paper and ink, such home-made entertainments are a rare survival.
