Each card gives the name among whom the mission was started; the place; the year; and the name of the Pioneer missionary. With text in English and in Burmese on verso of the cards. The American Baptist Missionary Union was first established in 1814. The missionary work started among the Burmese in Rangoon and gradullay extended to other tribes and nations. At this time (1885) there was 14 stations in Burma, 6 in Assam, 12 among the Telugus, 5 among the Chinese, and 4 in Japan. The game is complete and kept in a special made cloth box. Some staining but overall a great copy of this fascinating game, which must be extrremely rare to find complete.
