Item Details

A highly decorative hand-crafted example of a mid-20^th Century French passe boule game, in the form of a clown figure. The top hat is attached by a hinged flap that can be flipped back. Still with its original cotton stitched collection pouch in place. This item is hand painted and shows a very primitive construction made from pine wood, which in our humble opinion make it even more decorative and desirable. Days gone by when fairground entertainment was simple and fun.

Origin: France/Belgium

Material: Wood
