Montrose pegs

These were my grandmother's, I'm guessing from the 1950s or 1960s. Have had this box with some unused pegs sitting around for years.

 

I believe the pegs were made in Tasmania (Australia) with sassafras wood. There seems to have been quite an industry of peg making in Tasmania back then.
