Charming mechanical game, "Jeu de Course," with French manufacturer's name below. A huge 15x15x7", it is in the original black cloth on cardboard cover. Made exclusively for the wealthiest of French children the quality is marvelous. Lever on side sends the horses spinning at terrific speeds, as they try to "grasp the brass rings" on jousting poles. Beautiful piece in excellent condition--this is a winner right from the git-go.
