ABSTRACT:
A handheld character selector and display device for the agitation, random selection and display of spherical objects bearing characters thereon includes a main housing having disposed therein for random mixing through agitation a plurality of spherical objects bearing characters thereon. A sub-housing, preferably substantially smaller in volume than the main housing, is in communication with the main housing for receiving from the main housing for kinetic energy dissipation a sub-plurality of the spherical objects. A transparent identification chute, preferably substantially smaller in diameter than the sub-housing, is in communication with the sub-housing for receiving from the sub-housing and displaying in alignment a predetermined number of the spherical objects. Agitation means are provided for agitating the spherical objects in the main housing and propelling a sub-plurality thereof into the sub-housing so that the predetermined number of the spherical objects are eventually received in the chute, all within predetermined time constraints.
