The Carrom Company - Rules for Playing Games on the Styles D No. 2and E No. 1. Star Archarena Combination Game Boards

Ludington, MI, The Carrom Company, 1919. First Edition. First edition presumed, n. d.

The Ludington Novelty Company was founded in 1889 by Sunday School teacher Henry L. Haskell. He invented a game - Carroms - with a patented playing board, each one of which was manufactured by hand and was sold before another one was started. In 1902, the Ludington Novelty was merged with another game-manufacturing company with patented playing boards - Illinois-based Archarena Company - and in 1912, the Carrom-Archarena Company became the Carrom Company. The current booklet explained the rules for the various games played on Carrom boards, including Spinette, Ten-Pin Top Game, Crokinola, Travelling Carroms, and many more. It also supplied a price list for extra parts for combination game boards, as well as for matching game table and chairs and for a doll house. Very good .
