Description

A superb target game, in excellent vintage condition.  Amazingly, the game is still in good working order.  The target device is set by pulling the cord.  This raises the internal target board to the higher position.  The target board rests on an internal ledge.  When the Donkey is hit by a wooden ball, the board is dislodged and drops to reveal the kicking hind legs!  The game contains four original wooden balls.  Game instructions are printed on a label, attached to the underside of the box lid.

This is a very scarce game with superb period artwork which would grace any museum or collection.  The box bears the legend “British Manufacture” and “Made in England”.  There is no indication of the maker but I have received confirmation that it was made by Roberts Brothers (Glevum) of Gloucester.  It is believed to date from the 1920’s.  The box measures 35 x 18 x 3 cm.
