Might be a cast iron Hubley from the 1930sthought it was a cracker jack at first. Notice the fixed insert in the middle underneath. Makes me think it was set on a toy carrousel or similar?
Well done and thank youNeat. It looks like a game piece from a 'Brownies Auto Race' game by the Jeannette Toy and Novelty Company, first produced in the 1920s. Later versions had plastic cars. Some versions included holes on the tin board, into which marbles were rolled to determine how far the players’ cars could move on each turn. Other versions had a spinner instead.
