“Jeu de Course” Racetrack Game. [France: M. J. & Cie., ca. 1890s]. Tabletop parlor racing game, where two concentric rows of painted metal horses race through metal gates when the spring-action lever is moved. Working. With felt racing “ground,” wooden flag base and small pennant with French flag on a small pole. Racing mechanism enclosed in cardboard box with matching lid. Some mild wear to box and racing horses, some soiling, wear to felt, some wear, restoration, repairs to box. Still, a near fine example of this charming racing game.
