About the Item
Masterpiece quality American game board with fancifully painted cherubs, ca 1870
This is one of the greatest American painted Parcheesi boards extant. The fine quality of this is unmatched by anything I have seen in recent years. The attractive nature of the painted images of cherubs in the center square, flanked by decoratively stylized letters to form the word "Home", are joined by a trumpeted leaf-and-vine with grapes. There are at least 12 colors, expertly shaded to lend depth that compliments the designs. All-in-all, a masterpiece among American game boards and a trophy for the advanced collector.
Condition: Excellent with light, expected wear. There is an age crack in the wide softwood plank.

1862 Civil War playing cards with suits represented by stars, flags, shields, & eagles, in lieu of the traditional French suits of hearts, diamonds, clubs, and spades.
