ANON. Policy Players' Dream Book and Wheel of Fortune. (COVER TITLE READS): New Key to Find Your Own Numbers Based on Systems of the Ancients. Aunt Sally's Policy Players Dream Book. Study of Harmony In Numbers.
(NP: No publisher, nd—190-?) 8vo., original orange pictorial wrappers, 122pp. Chips out of the top edge of the upper wrapper, a few small nicks out of the edge of the rear wrapper but still a better than very good copy of a delicate item.
A curious publication as it does not contain an imprint in the rectangle on the upper wrapper where the imprint is found, nor is there a title-page with an imprint. However, this is complete as issued. “A curiosity of hoodoo gambling magic, the text consists of four separate lists of objects and situations found in dreams with interpretations and lucky numbers for playing Policy, an illegal (and now obsolete) “numbers” game once popular in the black community.'
