Description:

I have been adopted and now have a new home.

This ES Lowe game is lovingly referred to as a "sitting sparrow" style game. Notice that the
worker tiles represent Chinese occupations: the fisherman, wood cutter, farmer & scholar. This is an early style of ES Lowe as it still has the flower tiles instead of barons - the barons replaced the flower tiles in all the later games.

This game has 8 original flowers, 2 sets of fully sequenced bouquets numbered 1-4 with an additional 8 stickered joker tiles. These additional tiles have been added from an incomplete ES Lowe game and match really well. Take a look at the photo of the back of the tiles confirming the joker tiles cannot be spotted in amongst the other tiles.

The case is in sturdy condition with its original leather handle and felt lining. The burgundy Bakelite racks are particularly nicely swirled. There are matching metal E's on each rack. Tokens are included.
