Bottoms Up (1935)

This dice game by The Embossing Company is a variant of Shut the Box which does away with the box and uses a set of 9 chequers with one to nine spots on their faces and a depiction of a pig's bottom on the back. Each player rolls two dice during their turn and flips over one, two or three (Shut the Box only allows one or two numbers to be flipped) chequers which add up to the total rolled on the dice. The player keeps going until he/she is unable to flip over chequers, when play passes to the next player. Each player is supposed to have their own set of chequers and before taking a turn, a player has to ante a chip into the centre of the table. When the turn comes round again, a player continues to try to flip over any remaining chequers that still show spots. The first player to go "Bottoms Up" (i.e. flip over all their chequers) gets all the chips from the centre as well as a chip for each spot still showing on other player's checquers.
