Apple Season


I so want a set of these!


Archimedes Apples were used in the classroom to teach schoolchildren about fractions. This set from the 1920s, was produced by Critas for students of the Netherlands and its colonies.

Antiques dealer, Zus Korsten of the Netherlands offered this on 1stdibs a while back. Needless to say, it has been sold.
