Found in, and very much of, Maine--from what I understand this is a 19th century handmade logger's tally board (also known as a "bucking" board), used for tracking timber output. It is a bit subtle, but hand-carved above the top horizontal row of holes are numbers in intervals of 50 (50-300), and then vertically down the right edge of the board more numbers in intervals of 5 (5-50) which I believe would be used to track volume and scale of logs harvested at a logging camp. I am not an expert in logging, but love this as an object born of place and of necessity, and for its primitiveness, with a real sweetness to the naive manner of those scratched in numbers. With a rich patina to the dry wood and a special feeling about it.
9 1/2" x 6 1/16". Good antique condition, rich patina, original carved out hole at top for hanging.
