AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rare antique board game from the era, "Horse Racing Game," dating from the mid-20th century, about the 1940s or 1950s—a piece of Italian toy history. The lid features a fascinating period-color illustration showing a dynamic horse race with jockeys. On the box there is the historic paper label of the famous shop of the time, "Bambole e giocattoli" Linetti merceria Capitello Venezia. Inside the box is a mat on which the three horses with jockeys run; the mechanism that makes the mat vibrate is fixed inside the wooden box. The game is in good condition with a few small flaws; originally the game featured more horses, perhaps six."
