There should be a tray attached to it. The tray holds chips, or an Opossum. There is a lid on top of that. Played in Great Britain as ". Not sure how, but my guess is: you throw in the opossum, it leaps out, knocking up some of the numbered tabs. Best numbers win!
I have one here, made of wood (felt-lined box). Lacks the lid, and I'm still waiting for the opossum to come into my living room to try it out.
The game is known as SHUT THE BOX.
