Old Handmade Peg Solitaire Board with Carved Pegs

Somewhere along the way two of the carved pegs on this old board were lost, but it's easy to use a couple of tacks or nails to fill in when one plays--the name of the game being to remove all pegs by jumping them one by one. I love the humbleness of it, with board drawing in pencil on a piece of pine, but also the care its maker took in carving each of the pegs, which fit in the holes perfectly, and are easy to pul out. The reverse side, with the holes going all the way through, is good too.
