Description:

The antique "Ring the Pin" game is a rare, tabletop parlor game manufactured by Parker Brothers around the turn of the 20th century (circa 1900–1901). Produced in Salem, Massachusetts, it is highly sought after by collectors of vintage toys and Victoriana. According to historical Parker Brothers trade catalogs, the item was registered as No. 711. The entire set originally retailed for just 30 cents. The Launch Mechanism: Players use a felt mat and a large launcher disk to snap, flick, or catapult smaller rings. This mechanism borrows the popular physics of "Tiddledy Winks," which was a massive trend during that historical era. The Target Board: The game features a small upright screen or board fitted with brass hooks or pegs. Scoring: Each hook on the screen represents a different numerical value. Players score points by successfully launching the bone or composition rings so that they catch on the hooks.
