c1900 Native Am Cherokee STICKBALL 20\" stick w patina, wood burn marks, RARE For Sale

c1900 -20s antique Native American Indian Cherokee STICKBALL 20\" long continuous wood stick, with patina, rare to find!I think this is a hardwoo with hand chisel marks (doesn\'t not look machine finished). Came from antique store in the midwest years ago.Has a nice smooth patina from being used.It\'s possible there were older repairs, nails used to try to hold it together where wood split (see pics), but that would have been decades before I got it.Nice curved hoop. Historic item c1900 used for games or to settle disputes!This may be museum quality, hard to find comparables.Starting offerding at close to what a new one could run.Hard to find ones like this with the continuous wood piece folded over. Also with old wood burn marks for decoration or to signify other meaning.
Many new ones are now made of PVC pipe.
