Description:

I am adopted and now have a lovely 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 1920's and is in really great condition. The game has its original 8 sequenced bouquets. 4 flowers (spring, summer, autumn & winter) numbered 1-4 and 4 occupations (fisherman, wood cutter, peasant & scholar) 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 tiles match really well (see picture of the backs of all the tiles together).

The case is sturdy even though it has some of the usual scuff marks on the outside and the Bakelite handle is strong and unbroken. The game has 4 gorgeous swirled butterscotch Bakelite racks with matching metal E's - the E's are slightly squared at the edges. Tokens and a pair of dice are included.
