Description: This is a lovely little bone & bamboo game with all its original 148 tiles (144 for play and 4 spares). The game is from the mid to late 1940's and has the original "simpler" style character design confirming its age. There are 8 flowers, 2 bouquet of flowers each numbered 1-4. The flowers are rather quaint in this game - well engraved and nicely styled. The one bamboo is quite detailed for a sitting bird style game and a little more intricate than usual. The one bamboo is a traditional diving bird style. The tiles have a 25/75 split (25% bone and 75% bamboo). The game comes in its original rosewood case. It still has all its drawer pulls and original carrying handles. And all the corner trim on the exterior of the case is still attached. I took a picture of the sliding door to show you the great condition it is in. In fact the case is in great shape for a vintage piece as you can see! For anyone wishing to add a lovely vintage game to their collection or perhaps start a collection this is a great addition to anyone's home ...
