This is a wonderful 18th century one board checkerboard/gameboard. The gameboard measures 18 1/2” x 20 1/2” x 1″. The red squares are carved into the surface of the board making it dimensional as are the arrows that are in the corners. The gameboard has a wonderful dry natural surface on the odd squares. The board has traces of original grayish white paint that surrounded the checkered surface. The board originally 18 1/2 inches but because of age there is shrinkage crack in middle. The gameboard has its original breadboard sides with large square nails plus a few later nails. Rare and great folk art item. This s a great piece. Price: $795.00 + shipping
