French Polo Horse Racing Game, circa 1900
Country: France
Date: 1900

Description: This is a spectacular mechanical Horse Racing Game from the 1900's. This vintage game is similar to other French Horse Racing games, except this one has the riders holding what look to be Polo mallets. I've only seen one other Polo race game like this one and that was almost 10 years ago. It's still in working order, ready for that friendly wager. Remarkably, all the rides, horses and the delicate Polo mallets are still intact. It even retains its original lid, which was used to cover the game while in transport. Yes, these games would travel with gentleman and used for gambling. This is the perfect gift for the Polo enthusiast.
