Long Description
 This appears to be an antique or primitive tool of some sort.  It may be some kind of wooden mold or kitchen/farm object in that it resembles a squared-off rolling pin, with ridges.  It's covered with very tiny holes (termites?) and there are a few areas where the wood is cracked or broken (along one edge, the bottom surface, and between a few ridges).  The rest of this piece is very smooth and solid.  Does anyone know what this is?  When/where it was made/used?  Value?
History
I purchased this at actor Robert Taylor's estate sale in Mandeville Canyon, CA. I know nothing about this item except that someone screwed a small hook at one end, I assume for hanging.
