The true story of the amazing 1902 Ping Pong craze in America. A
perfume named Ping Pong? Ping Pong in half a dozen different
Broadway shows? Ping Pong cigarettes, a Ping Pong dance, Ping Pong
soap and Ping Pong Juice? It's starting to sound like Dr. Seuss
Twin babies named Ping and Pong? Ping Pong balls used to mail
letters? Ping Pong on a train? Ping Pong on the brain
Welcome to 1902 America. A new game with a funny name is
changing lives. There is no escaping the epidemic, spreading
uncontrollably from family to family, infiltrating every town and
hamlet in the nation.
Full of rich period detail, this lively romp examines who is
playing---from the famous to the farmer to the athlete---and the
effect of the madness on every sphere of daily living---fashion,
romance, humor, health and more. Tournament champions included the
day's top lawn tennis players.
And for the first time anywhere: Who really invented Ping
Pong?
Illustrated with over 400 photos, drawings and cartoons from the
1902 era.
Oh, a warning: You, too, will catch PING PONG FEVER.
But you will also catch yourself smiling a lot.
