AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Beautiful mid-20th-century tabletop game set containing Bakelite poker chips, wooden domino tiles, 10 dice of two different types, a 'toma todo' spinning top, a deck of cards (not vintage but added later) and a score-keeping pencil (portamine).

The games are housed in an elegant square wooden box measuring 20 x 20 cm, with four playing cards (the aces) embossed on colored metal and a metal handle to open it.

Poker chips come in various sizes, shapes, and colors. The round ones are about 4 cm and 2 cm in diameter, while the rectangular ones are 4 x 2 cm.
The spinning top 'toma todo' is hexagonal and has the inscriptions: wins 1, wins 2, wins everything, pays 1, pays 2, everyone pays.
The dice are five classic ones and five with the card ranks 9, 10, Jack, Queen, King of Spades (blue and red).
The scorekeeping pencil has a head decorated with the four suits of cards.
The domino tiles are 28, made of wood and with recessed red pips.

Condition: overall good, minimal signs of wear, some scratches on the box paint.
