croquet game

We have this old croquet game set. This is how I have found it and really haven't looked for any markings on it. Any thoughts?

Most of America had one of these sets in the 40`s and 50`s !! Was a popular outdoor lawn game !!  We had another question about these a few days ago !!  Complete set value about $20. to $25. !!

You don't see as many that are horizontal as upright. The really decorative ones with the colorful old paint do sell. I used to love playing. Especially when I got to send someone to the next yard.

I was never that real good at it and my brother would send mine soaring to the neighbors yard!
