Cardboard game pieces, no markings or writing to indicate what it came from.

Found in "The Swiss Family Robinson in Words of One Syllable" by Mary Godolphin. Published by George Routledge and Sons, circa 1890.

    I love the artwork on the game pieces, especially the car and the house. Great find!
