The Embossing Company Color Cubes Set of 36, c. 1930s backgammon box board He measures 8 1/2" long

He measures 8 1/2" long x 4 3/4" tall x 3" wide

It is about as make-do as it gets

The funnel is perfectly balanced and the narrow end flush

This great antique postcard makes me think the thank you post card should become the latest thing once again

One of the things I really love about this unusually large English schoolgirl sampler is that it includes both alphabets and numbers (including roman numbers I-V) AND darning samples (the square patterns on the lower half)

And no wonder, they are really one of the best things ever made! As is typically the case, the box on these, I believe dating to the 1930s, is pretty worn, but the blocks themselves are in great shape nice patina but very little paint loss; just perfect. 36 blocks. Box measures 7" x 7" x 1 1 4". Blocks approx 1" cubed. Lay them out on
