Grande Menagerie Gazon


French  game, early 20th century. Wow--an outstanding piece. This is the sheet, before it was made into the board game, if I'm reading the entry slip on the lower right of the frame correctly.

Game boards are fun to collect, if you can find them. I recommend The Games We Played, the companion book for an exhibit of American game boards from the collection of Arthur Liman, displayed at the New York Historical Society about seven years ago.
