Finely crafted replica of a game board of a century old vintage.
Itself, being 30 years old “vintage.”
(See date and maker’s mark on the back.)
Folk art, of sorts.
Detailed.
Satin finish.
It has appropriate aged-relief on its surface.
The “off white” square sections
(@ 12, 3, 6, and 9 … on the dial … with geometric rectangles) have a definite yet delicate, crackle finish.
Well designed and artfully constructed.
Distinctive.
Purchased in Richmond, Indiana … at a “senior citizens” craft store, decades ago, which was originally a corner grocery store … built in 1896.
Richmond, being founded in 1806.
A very nice piece of Americana.
