Billet Addition / Switching Slate. Ca. 1930. Subtle variant of the coin tray. Apparently innocent schoolroom slate conceals a compartment that adds billets, coins, or cards to a stack on top of it when the articles are dumped into a spectator's hands. 8 3/4 x 6 3/4”. Functional and stable overall with light cosmetic wear; adhesive residue to one side of slate.
