Description
14" x 11" (35 x 28 cm) box. A firm-sided box has
lithographed paper decorations and a fantastical
engraving on the lid portraying a domino-suited
child riding an ostrich-head bicycle, labeled "Le
Seigneur Domino". Inside is contained the game
board with domino-themed roulette wheel, domino
cards with matching tiny bone dominoes, and a
series of prizes including a rare hand-painted
glass scene of Paris. The game was made by
Coqueret of Paris, circa 1860, and is extremely
rare. Contents excellent, box worn.
