Condition (used):  generally fair for age in poor box (see below) - INCOMPLETE we are uncertain as to the completeness of this game but at least 4 balls are missing - this game includes the following elements: 4 wooden mallets; 6 metal hoops; 1 metal marker; the instructions are in the lid - the box is quite worn with corner/edge wear, general heavy marks/wear/grubbiness/discolouration including significant damage (4 damaged corners, peeling and looseness to the label and papers), the wooden parts have some very light grubbiness, one of the hoops is missing a pin, otherwise minor marks commensurate with age and use.

Identifying marks or labels etc:  "British Manufacture".

Other information:  a very rare old game from an unknown manufacturer, there is an ink stamp in the lid which reads "E De La Mare The Oxford Toy Merchant George Street Oxford" - we are not entirely sure of the age but would suggest circa 1910s to 1920s - may be of some interest to a collector.

Approximate dimensions:    29cm (box length) 9.5cm (box width) 4cm (box height).

Approximate weight:  200g.
