AI-assisted summary

Very early and rare type card passer. Found 40 years ago in Dordrecht. I date it to the 16th century but it could be earlier. Normally I offer my early passers as scientific items, but I want to try it here this time.

Photos are an essential part of the property description so that you can form your own opinion in advance.

Seller's Story

I am also a collector and lover of antiques. I try to offer you good collectibles at a fair price. Everything I offer is original, authentic and not restored! I explicitly mention any drawbacks in the object description or show them in the photos. Have fun collecting and good luck bidding.
