Lovely, Early Old Set of Color Cubes in Wooden Box scallop design So handsome

So handsome

while there are some references to the war mixed in

no chips that I can see

These wooden animals--dogs

and each piece in the set is wonderfully unique

Lovely, Early Old Set of Color Cubes in Wooden Box scallop design So handsomeOne of the things I love about these old U. S.

These are an early set, in a wooden bottomed box rather than a cardboard one
