Scrimshawed Walrus Ivory Cribbage Board

This is a handsome carved cribbage board with very dark designs. The top has a seal on an ice flow above the playing area, while oval leaves on a branch cap each end of the playing area and a bunny and more leaves fill the space between the two sections of the playing area. The bottom of the tusk has an elaborate map of Nome's rivers. It has its original four pegs inside the end of the tusk which are secured by a hinged ivory "gate".
