ABSTRACT:
A spinner having easily changeable indicia and an upper section which can be turned for viewing the indicia from different directions. The indicia are printed on two-sided, symmetrically shaped cards, each having a large hole in the center and evenly spaced notches along its outer edge. A card is mounted by placing it on top of the device. The central hole accommodates the spinner's pointer, allowing disks to be changed without removing the pointer. When a disk is mounted, some of its notches mate with raised tabs on the upper section, holding it in place. The remaining notches permit access to finger notches in the upper section which facilitate turning it, in a fashion similar to telephone dialing. When the upper section is turned, the spinner's pointer turns together with the indicia.
