Fortunescope: The Prognosticator of Human Destiny

7/8/2016

 
This is the most unique, fascinating and uncanny fortune teller ever discovered! It says so right on it!

This fabulous wheel is in great shape except for the grommet. I had to replace it with a brad so I could use it. Here's something uncanny: I actually have brads laying around!

The copyright on this is 1935 and was produced by Modern Features, Inc. I'm surprised it wasn't made by something like Prognostication Products Ltd.

I love absolutely everything about this wheel, especially the fortune teller AND the delightful warning noted at the bottom. Most of the questions relate to marriage or money. There are 450 available answers, which is what makes this wheel so good. Hours of fun!

​I thought it would be fun to test it out. I chose "What is my foremost quality?" I followed the instructions and the fortune teller told me, "Has anyone ever accused you of having one?" Hmpf! I guess I should have taken the warning more seriously.

I asked another: "Who is trying to deceive me?" The wheel told me, "Gaze into the mirror and you shall see."

​I guess I shouldn't fool with my fate.
