    Description

    For your consideration is an antique, handmade game of JACK STRAWS / SPILLIKINS / SPELLICANS.  The delicate wooden (pine?) pieces appear hand-carved with some bearing penciled point values.  The longest pieces measure 3-1/4 inches to 3-1/2 inches.  I do not know the geographical origin of this game but, having purchased it decades ago in Pennsylvania, I believe it to be American.  The pieces come in a treenware barrel that stands about 4-3/4 inches tall and about 2-1/8th inches in diameter (at the top and bottom and about 2-5/8th inches in diameter in the middle.
