I saw these at a garage sale today and had to get them. I will be darned if I can find anything on the net about them, does anyone here know what these are?

My mother in law was from Japan she had a curio cabinet full of similiarly shaped and designed items. So my guess would be they are Japanese 1950s-1960s.

An early prototype (pre-battery era) for when the man of the house was out of town?

LOL that would just be my freakin' luck posting it for God and all creation to see er, duh what is this? Mother will be proud.

I think they are Kokeshi. Still can't find these specifically, they are cool.

It looks like they may be from a ring toss game.
