Description: I have been adopted and now have a new home. Mah Jongg Sales of America (MJSA) were located in San Francisco originally in the 1920's and appear to have been the largest importers of Mah Jong games into the US. Both Bakelite and bone & bamboo games were sold under the Mah Jongg Sales of America logo and their font and spelling of Mah Jong with a double G were copyrighted by the founder Joseph Babcock. This particular game is a very early style from the 20's. It has beautiful racks with the rare squared bakelite E's on each of them in a contrasting light bottle green. This game has 152 tiles - it would originally have come with 146. The remaining tiles have been added to the game from another MJSA game. The style of white, red and green dragons is unique to MJSA. This is a particularly nice game. |
