Game of Pewter Jacks - The game we know as jacks was played in the ancient world over 2000 years ago with small animal bones or pebbles. In early America, the game was comonly known as five-stone or jack-stones. As time went on, one of the stones (the Jack) was replaced by a wooden ball, then a rubber ball; the other stones were replaced by small pointed metal pieces reminiscent of the original animal knucklebones.

Jacks game comes in a beautiful, suede, leather pouch sure to become a family keepsake. Contains 10 giant jacks that are cast of lead-free pewter, along with 1 wood ball and 1 bouncy ball. Also includes a hang tag of history and instruction to play.
