- Texcraft Toy Products, Inc.
- Made in USA
- Raffia basket craft kit
- Includes original box, instruction sheet, 9 cardboard basket starters and 12 bundles of colored weaving material
- Beautiful colored basket starters feature bunny rabbit, 3 pigs, children and flowers
- Basket starters range in size from 6.5" x 5.5" up to 7.5" in diameter for the biggest round ones
- It was very hard to find information regarding this set online due to the rarity
- I was able to find a previous eBay listing that had sold two of these basket starters with some weaving and the instruction sheet from back in March 2020
- Other than that, the only thing I found was a mention of the company name in a United State Patent Office document from 1934
- I am assuming this set is from around 1940 but I am not certain of the exact date of manufacture
Condition:
- The box has heavy shelf wear, discoloration, stains and the lid has a ripped corner
- The basket starters look good overall, a couple have worn spots in the color and one has a tiny piece ripped off of one of the edges
- Instruction sheet has light bends and discoloration
- Some of the weaving bundles are worn and splintered along the ends/edges
- The set looks to be in good overall condition otherwise
- Please review all photos as they are a large part of the condition description
