Fabulous Old Handmade "Club Checkers" Box, with Checkers astonomy which likely once fit into

which likely once fit into a post attached to a platform

and it is the most beautiful of it's ilk I've ever seen

The only actual flaws I have found are two tiny chips on the lips of two of the bowls (one on each)--very minor

Tiny tear on the front short side center of the box (very minor)

I have seen a few other copies and the fabric is different on each

Fabulous Old Handmade "Club Checkers" Box, with Checkers astonomy which likely once fit intoDefinitely among my favorite boxes I've found is this wonderfully primitive handmade checkers box with this fantastic hand drawn paper label spelling "club checkers" in round letters and with two little clubs to boot. The box appears to have been made with wood salvaged from cigar boxes or wooden crates, with a lid that slides through a notch in the side of the box and then through two tiny pins, one above it and one below.
