C. 1920s-40s Hand-painted, Double-sided Letter Blocks turned bone bodkins And hard to beat thatThese blocks were individually hand painted by someone pretty great at painting letters. Only a partial set, but double sided yellow on red on one side, white on red on the other, with double letters for VX and YZ.
