Fabulous Old Handmade "Club Checkers" Box, with Checkers astonomy Ecole des Beaux-Arts in ParisDefinitely among my favorite boxes I've found is this wonderfully primitive handmade checkers box with this fantastic hand drawn paper label spelling "club checkers" in round letters and with two little clubs to boot.
