This is an original vintage MAHJONG set comprising 144 "Butterscotch" Chinese Bakelite Tiles with Black Wafer backing, which come in their original leather case.Overall condition is excellent, with just superficial age-related surface wear and light scratches.  The tiles are very nicely decorated, including some interesting designs (Chinese Warriors etc) and quite fine detailing.

In total there are 144 tiles, which makes this a complete set, but please check photos to confirm.

The set comes with various bone and Bakelite counters, a Bettor and two pairs of bone?? Dice.

There are a couple of instruction manuals in the inside pocket of the lid, one carries a copyright date of 1924.Each tile measures 1 3/16" x7/8" x 9/16" (30mm x 22mm x 14mm)The bais lined leather case is overall in pretty good condition, with are a few age related scuffs/marks.  It has it's original latch and leather strap.  Whilst the latch is working, please note that it is missing the outer casing to the button, which probably formed a keyhole. 

The carry handle is complete and appears to be in good condition, but please note it is over 60 years old, so I cannot guarantee how strong it is.  There is some text stamped into the lock, but it is indistinct.
