| Nice board - reminds me of those spin the wheel games you get at the funfair.
What's it made of - is it cork for the board stuck onto a square of wood? |

| Whats interesting is it still follows the same London (clock) numbering, yet its from 1920's and a U.S. style of darts. |

| The board is actually a piece of plywood. The brown area is all cork with wires and staples. And the board is hand painted. I believe the original owner put some type of preservative on the cork to keep it from drying out. |
