This is a race horse that I believe is from an H C Evans table horse race game. The game was large table top size with 4 or 5 circular lanes each with a colorful carved and painted horse. I have only ever seen one complete game but have seen several of these horses. This one is in average condition with of course paint wear but the number 2 and King are very readable. These games were popular from the late 1800’s to the 1930’s. This particular carving is different from some others I have seen, it is sort of boxy. I think this could be an earlier version. The piece is completely intact. The horse is 16″ long and stands 12″ high on the display stand we created. You can see this and other fun pieces and great antiques in our large space at Columbia Rivertowne Antique Center, Columbia, PA.
