An old game of skill and strategy published by JJF Paris, "Le Disque" comes in a colorful box decorated with a clown and juggler, typical of the Belle Époque's game imagery. The principle is simple in appearance but requires sound logic: the tokens must be placed one by one on the points of a star, following a prescribed path from a starting point to the end of a corresponding line. The inside of the lid contains the rules as well as a printed solution. This game testifies to both the graphic care of Parisian publishers at the turn of the century and the ingenuity of the game mechanics of the period.
