    As far as we know, this backglass artwork did not become a production game, unless the name changed to a game for which we have not yet found its match. The center area showing the woman with parrot originally appeared in color in the painting "Singapore" by artist Henry Clive (1882-1960). It appeared on the cover of the October 9, 1938 edition of The American Weekly. The artist dated the backglass drawing as 9-30-47. Artist Lester Hilbrich (1911-1999) worked for Advertising Posters, Sullivan-Nolan Advertising, and Lions/Bally. Compare the artwork to his work for Williams' 'Aloha'.
