Incredible imagery of 1910s and 1920 European motoring, in a travel game that voyages from 1-90.

Frame is a very fine one, in deep red to enhance the many colors of the board itself.

36" wide by 26" tall by 1`" deep - presented under museum grade poly for safety and preservation.

Discovered in a very fine and incredibly eclectic collection on the Eastern Shore of Maryland - we feel fortunate to have secured it.

In keeping with Aesop's fable, Fox and Crow's Motto is "Beware of False Flattery!" So, with each listing we offer a true confession about the item...

The graphics, the colors, the imagery, the detail, and the size...this beautiful piece has everything we look for in a unique heirloom artwork. We will never tire of exploring the details in these cartouches and vignettes!

We imagine this was a treasured childhood memory as a game or toy can often be - that someone devised a way to preserve and elevate it for future generations.

Mission Accomplished!

It is charming and of very fine quality, and would be incredible in some many places...a den or study, a family room, a child's space, even a cocktail bar.

We hope very much an eclectic character with a keen eye will add this to their curated collections. See less
