| Fine quality board with boxwood balls on pintops as in Jaques pattern book, plus mace and cue. This game is also listed by other makers: see Cremer Croquet Rules for similar board but with round top hoops.
The Jaques advertisement shown illustrates the square top hoops.
A set of rules for Cockamaroo is in JJohnson collection, published by Spurin.
Also shown in Hoyle as Russian Bagatelle or Cockamaroo Board
Each ball played alternately. Score kept on side of board. The 100 cup at top wins the game early, but it appears the red ball placed there at the start has first to be dislodged. |
