Details
Box (225x115x88mm) is a DIY-product. Made of heavy cardboard pasted with wrapping paper. Based on the standard 5-drawer box. With loose lid and attached flap front. Inside there are four trays for tiles and one with four compartments for counters and dice.
Tiles (23x33x10mm) are made of slightly grinded wood. With on top a thin layer of sturdy, grayish cardboard. Printed in one, two or three colors. Characters and images are completely similar to some other Hillson’s sets. They are displayed in the Hillson’s ‘Ma Chiang’ instruction manuals with the red cover and are identical to the Pung Chow tiles. There are, and that is unusual for Hillson’s, four spare tiles.
Counters are thin strips made of the same cardboard as used for the tiles. With Western denomination.
Dice are made of (ugly) bone with Western points.
There are no wind indicators and instruction manual.
The picture of inside of t he cover of the instruction manual shows the tiles of this set.
