Native American Theme 1930

The Embossing Company. Albany, NY

The West was a major attraction in the late 1920s. Travel to the Southwest was booming, and Native American themes were in vogue. The Embossing Co. manufactured several different domino sets and other games in keeping with the trend.

Of special interest is the face of the tiles. The design was patented in 1928 by Tom C. Graham of the Embossing Co. (Patent drawing below.) It allows for the use of a single die to emboss all the different tile faces up to a set of double nines, eliminating the need for a different die for each different tile face.

Domino Size: 1-7/16 " long x 3/4 " wide.

Original cardboard box.
