Presented is a rarely seen Major League Baseball game from the early part of the 20th century. The game has a late 1912 patent date noted several times on the interior of the wooden drawer, which opens to reveal the playing surface. The exterior remains complete with both sets of clasps and hinges, displaying only minor wear given its age and nature. The playing surface is original with the spinner and all six dials in worn, but functioning condition. The spinning action has caused some surface wear under the metal spinner, though this flaw does not detract from the overall appearance. Accompanied by (19) impressive wooden counters, this baseball artifact will make for a fine early baseball display. Closed drawer measures 19x13x3.
