Description:

I have been adopted and now have a new home.

The Eastern manufacturing company started producing games in the 1920's and appears to have made games for a number of different Mah Jong labels. You will see similarities between Eastern games, Piroxloid and even 10 Flowers.

This game is one of their earlier styles from the early 1930's. It is affectionately called the "sitting sparrow" style of game. The game has 8 sequenced bouquets. 4 flowers numbered 1-4 and 4 occupations numbered 1-4. The game would have originally come with 146 tiles. 8 tiles have been added from another partial Eastern game to bring the tile count to 152 for NMJL rule play.

The case is sturdy and in pretty good condition. The handle is a clear lucite handle which is original to the case. The game has 4 gorgeous swirled Bakelite racks in blue/green, bright red, minty green and lemon with matching honey lemon Bakelite E's. Tokens and a pair of dice are included.
