Anyone know this bowling toy's possible age, whether you think it is handmade or not, and it's possible value?
Thanks!!!

Sometime, somewhere in the last year I read an article on these but I do not remember what they are called...Skittles maybe?  Almost positive they were factory made and English too.

Also AKA 'Ten Pins'.

Been searching, but no sets exactly like yours so far, kdj.

What a nice antique toy!
It is the first time I've seen that.
