Mah Jongg The Game of the Art Deco Period

A game we fell in love with in the mid-1960s is Mah Jongg.  At the time we did not realize it was a game from the Art Deco Period, but have since discovered that our Rosewood Ivory and wood set was circa 1923, and we recently purchased a set we feel is Bakelite, that also seems to date from the 1920-1930s, according to the pictures.

We also have a playing card from 1941
Mah Jongg Rules Books (1923, 1966-1967)
Mah Jongg Score Pad (1922)
We have recently taken up playing this game again, and Pat plays with two groups. One group plays the American Version, the other group is learning the Chinese Version. If you are a Mah Jongg fan, or would like to know more about the game, please contact Pat, or your web master.
