Antique Milton Bradley Ten Pins Set

One of my greatest garage sale finds yesterday was this wooden tabletop ten pins set, made by Milton Bradley in the 1900s. The pins and balls are made of turned wood, and the pieces are in their original box. They all have a wonderfully smooth patina of age.

    1. Congrats, great find! And you're right, there's no info. anywhere. At least with the box, we know its by Milton Bradley. I'd say 1900s, but can't get more specific than that. Saw one in an antique store priced at $65.
