Nine printed sheets each printed with people or items and showing the cut lines. Original chromolithograph card box archivally repaired along seams. Some occasional light foxing on sheets, card covers browned and worn in places, a few other minor signs of wear but generally very good. 43 x 24cm. Rare. We have found no other copies of this game. The first two sheets show Chinese people in clothes appropriate to their age, occupation etc. Those illustrated include The Opium Smoker, School-master, The General Shopkeeper, Native Biblewoman etc. Other sheets show furniture and fittings, a coloured illustration of the street, a black and white image of the city gate and a much larger sheet (50 x 87.5cm) which is an illustration of the street and onto which the other cut-outs when coloured and cut out are placed.
