About the game

Early game from Spears Germany. The object to fly paper cones weighted at the tip into holes of different values in the box base. The game has three lithographed hands with a dowel on the middle underside, the cones are placed on the fingers and by hitting down on the other end are propelled through the air. The box lid illustration is a wonderful period picture of two children playing the game. A recent heritage reprint uses the same graphics and layout.
