A rare pocket Game Counter or Norfolk Liar, used for counting numbers of shot game. Graduated with four clicker dials; one each for hares, rabbits, pheasants and partridges with the species written in French: lievres, lapins, faisans and perdrix.
These pocket Game Counters were used to keep tally of shot game, and give bragging rights amongst shooters - and no doubt one or two extra clicks were made hence the nickname ‘Norfolk Liar’!
Clearly made for the French market, likely by one of the Yorkshire makers of such interesting items. Has ‘yellow metal’ fob chain and ring clasp, untested and unmarked.
