ABSTRACT:
A compact, economical, random indicia selection device is provided which allows versatility in generating sets of random numbers, for example, useful in selecting numbers for lottery games. The preferred device includes a container having a generally transparent top wall, a bottom wall having a plurality of ball-receiving cavities defined therein and enclosing sidewalls, all defining a ball-receiving compartment, and a plurality of numerical indicia-bearing balls received in the compartment which are registrable with the cavities, the number of cavities being less than the number of balls. In use, the device is shaken and balls allowed to settle in the cavities whereby the respective indicia can be viewed through the top wall in order to select a set of random numbers corresponding thereto.
