Dog Gone (Bone Box). California, Ben Wallace, ca. 1945. A version of the sucker Die Box using a block painted to represent a bone, and a “dog house” where the bone reappears after vanishing from the wooden two-door cabinet. Box 6 x 6 x 2”. Finish of all pieces worn. Uncommon. Often mistaken for a Thayer product, due in part to Wallace’s proximity to Thayer’s, and his ability as a craftsman.
