In 1923 there were 1,505,080 Mah Jongg sets exported from Shanghai, China. Practically all of these came to the United States. Upon learning of this, the Towle Mfg. Co., Newburyport, Mass., made an extensive investigation, showing that Mah Jongg had taken a regular place among American games. The result is Towle is offering its Chinese Chippendale line of sandwich plates, bonbon dishes, cake dishes, ash trays, etc., which are appropriate for prizes and table appointments for the tea or luncheon which is almost universally served at Mah Jongg parties. Unique window and counter cards in color have been sent to the trade announcing the Chinese Chippendale line, and its connection with Mah Jongg, enabling the jeweler to make an interesting display. Practically every magazine is carrying articles on Mah Jongg functions, and all goods which have a Chinese atmosphere are profiting. By taking advantage of this trend, the jeweler can draw into his store some of the great numbers of new enthusiasts who are taking up Mah Jongg. The Towle Chinese Chippendale line offers gifts that are most appropriate for the occasion. They are useful gifts that last, gifts which are actually used in connection with the game.
