Not a lot of info to be had on this particular item, it was a throwaway promotional item for the Star Soap brand from Schultz & Company in Zanesville, Ohio.  The company began in 1853 and often used games and puzzles to promote the company.

Recently in this approximate condition sold for about $50, a cleaner version about $80.
