Summary
A double spinner, one of the game parts included with the "TV Times Television Quiz Game" complete with original box with game parts inside. Made by 'MB Games'. The item is a piece of cardboard, with two 'dials' printed on it, divided into segmants, each of which has a plastic 'spinner' arrow attached through the middle. The arrow is spun, and the segment each lands on dictates the catagory of card and then the number question that the player is to be asked.
