Flaps remember the scoreSourced
A whist marker records two sorts of progress
A typical wooden short-whist marker has five broad flaps for points and three narrow ones for games won. Changing the flaps records progress without repeatedly writing figures on paper. The device tracks more than one level of the game.
The open flaps carry the memory.
