Default Saw This Tin Game in Antiques Store

Spotted this game in a store the other day....I'd say early 30's....Not my bag really but if it was in better shape might have got involved...Wind-up key worked so assume it's original...which would be remarkable...Apparently you wind up the playing diamond underneath and it spins...then try to get the ball to sink in one of the bases....then what happens I don't know...The fact it winds with a clock work type assembly that still works, at least somewhat, seems to make it special...Shot with lame phone camera
