Whirling Words

Game ID: GID0387475
Collection Status
Description

In Whirling Words, players score points by forming words of a length, starting letter, and ending letter as indicated by the spinner. Only the most common letters are given on the two letter layers of the spinner, eliminating some unworkable combinations for game play.

Whirling Words looks to be an example of an item made by a producer of war-rationed goods (in this case, aluminum) to keep its name in the public eye during WWII. With aluminum earmarked for use in the U.S. war effort, Club Aluminum used wood and cardboard components for this game.
