10.5" x 10.5" high without tassels when measured diagonally

Wrapped in tissue all these years! No fading, no missing beads, no flaws of any kind. We can't call the "typo" a flaw, can we? As can be seen TORONTO is spelled TOROATO. I wonder if the buyer at the "1928 Toronto National Exhibition" got a deal or had to pay a premium because of this. We know what happens to stamp or coin prices when mistakes are made!

The colors are absolutely brilliant. This pin cushion's beading was not particularly challenging but its fine condition makes up for it.
