Counting Game; 1970s

Perhaps a little easy to be a desk toy but we could't resist this old fashioned educational aid, made in the U.S in the mid 70s. The wooden base has groups of dowel onto which the coloured plastic squares fit. There are 5 squares for the 5 dowels, 4 for 4 and so on. A nice display piece or something for the little ones to learn with. 16x4x2.5"
