Description Our custom-engraved wooden cribbage set features the National WWI Museum and Memorial logo and a handy magnetic closure on the bottom to store the wooden pegs. Learn more about how WWI troops passed the time and our exhibition, Entertaining the Troops, here. About the "Intersections" logo: This single image expresses the constructive as well as destructive energies released by World War I, and the impact it continues to have on our lives today. A touch of red recalls the poppies of Flanders Fields. The tangle of intersecting lines can be the stakes upon which barbed wire was hung; the railroad tracks that fed men and munitions to the fronts; the factories where new technologies were discovered and exploited; the chaos of bombarded streets and the fallen beams of broken homes. Beyond those specific images lie broader themes: the intersection of individual lives and entire nations, the clash of old cultures and new ideas and, finally, a glimpse of the startling art forms launched in the aftermath of the conflict.
