Pair of Old Carnival Knock Down Pins in Glorious Yellow and Red Paint hand-carved box also horsehair I think andJust fantastic color and surfaces on this pair of old carnival knock down pins, there was no way I could resist, and I find them completely joyful. With a satisfying big drip of creamy white paint down the side of one. Much knocked around over the years, very much to the good. Gorgeous. Each 8" t x 3" d. Sold as pair. Super sturdy and sound, made of wood.
