Master Mariner's Game
An exclusive and lovely gift to bring out for special occasions although it is even robust enough for the children to play with! A real discussion stimulator! The handmade rimu box is beautifully made and the 42 small discs of the individual Resolution and Adventure ships from Captain James Cook’s second voyage, insert into the slots under the lid for a game of chance very similar to a popular children’s game. A full size medal is inlaid on the outside of the lid and the rules of the game are in olde English of a style from 1772.
The enclosed booklet of the Interesting Story of the Resolution and Adventure Medal of 1772 by Australian author L. Richard Smith has been given a recent New Zealand ‘facelift’ with artwork of an imaginary scene of the time by well respected South Island artist Patrick G. Hall. The booklet fit snugly into the box for the interest of those receiving this splendid gift. Box size 235mm x 175 mm x 30 mm Price $246
