BG-2024.0377Description
This is likely to be a tray-less AP Games set, based on familiar features such as the bakelite handle and comparison to other likely Popper sets. It is somewhat peculiar that the handle does not match the green color of the points. The set as acquired came only with the dice, The bowl-carved checkers and .75" bakelite cube provide a plausible reconstruction of the original set.Made/Created
