Donated by Andree DeJournett. “China Mary,” whose real name is recorded as Sing Choy or Ah Chum, was a Chinese immigrant from Guangdong who became one of Tombstone’s most influential figures during its boom in the 1880s. She ran a well-stocked general store serving both American and Chinese customers, and her word was highly trusted. She brokered labor for nearly all the Chinese workers in town, collected their pay, and ensured quality. Her business ventures extended into opium dens, gambling houses, brothels, money lending, and laundries, making her the central authority of Tombstone’s Chinatown. China Mary’s residence still stands today on Allen Street—it has been transformed into the China Mary Inn, a boutique lodging that preserves the historical charm of the Old West while offering modern comforts. The condition of this board from China Mary's house is preserved with some slight wear to the white paint on the outside and to the wood on the inside but otherwise shows a well preserved condition. The measurements of this board is 5 3/8" x 18 1/4". The collective weight of this board is 1lb 2oz. LO86
