Antique folding leather travel cribbage board featuring a patented early 1900s design. The interior is stamped “PAT’D APRIL 13, 1909” and includes the original built-in center peg storage compartment with six metal scoring pegs.
The board folds closed into a compact leather case with an embossed faux-alligator/crocodile pattern. Interior scoring tracks are intact and clearly visible. This is an unusual early portable cribbage design and would make a great piece for a cribbage, gaming, or antique travel-game collection.
Condition is consistent with age. The exterior leather shows wear, scuffing, edge wear, and age-related discoloration. The closure strap is torn/broken as shown. Interior leather also shows wear and staining. Please review all photos carefully for exact condition.
