Lovely Old Ball in Cage Whimsy Rattle with Fancy Underside antique card but these six alone represent

but these six alone represent quite the cast of characters

including figures in beautifully decorated kimonos sitting and eating

Someone appears to have valued it enough to carve

I really love this little tin litho football

Lovely Old Ball in Cage Whimsy Rattle with Fancy Underside antique card but these six alone representDefinitely an old one, with a beautiful warm patina to the pine, and lovely detailing to the underside of the base, which makes it seem as if it could function as a butter stamp as well! The faceted top makes a perfect handle for waving out around as a rattle, and feels great in the hand. Very nice. 5 t x 1 1 8 wide and deep and in great, I would guess antique, condition.
