Protest 376-K of M. Pressner & Co.
5 Cust. Ct. 372
Opinion of the Court
Opinion by
It was admitted that if enough of the wooden disks were obtained one could play a game of checkers with them and that the entirety consisted of an envelope in which three wooden disks and a small celluloid capsule containing a metal ball have been placed. As an entirety it is not used for playing checkers so does not fall within the common meaning of the term “draughts.” The claim at 33)4 percent under paragraph 412 was sustained.
