Description: This colorful vintage skittles bowling game has 6 turned wood pins and 1 ball. The vintage bowling game is just the right size for table top playing. A fun retro toy, you don't have to play with it to enjoy it. The vintage toy looks great displayed on a shelf in a game room or office, and would make a unique gift. The origins of skittles & bowling can be traced back roughly 3300 years to ancient Egypt. According to its Wikipedia entry, the game concept is deeply entrenched in European history with scores of variations throughout the continent. The Wikipedia entry also has a glossary of skittle terms, my favorite being "Any Old How" defined as "a ball that has missed its intended target, but has knocked over quite a few pins that count towards the score...." Pins and ball are in good condition for a vintage toy that has been played with. Pins and ball have some paint loss, dings, & scratches all of which add to their charm. Skittles are approximately 6 inches tall.Ball has a 2 1/4 inch diameter.
