Fun, Very 1980s Sponge Painted Wooden Checkerboard schoenut circus like a planter

like a planter

with the cutout letters and eggs about 3/8" thick on top of that

While this piece definitely shows its age

There are a couple of small chips around the lip of the lid

I have looked and looked but found no other matador doll out there as wonderful as this one

Fun, Very 1980s Sponge Painted Wooden Checkerboard schoenut circus like a planterYes, everyone covets old primitive boards, but I think this very early 90s hand painted checkerboard makes a pretty strong argument for a more contemporary iteration. Very fun, and quite well done, surely with sponges in hand to create the marbleized effect. And on the back gray felt to keep it for scratching up the table. I might try to find some white marble checkers or chess pieces to play on this one! 18" x 18" x 7 8" and in great condition. The
