  • know where it came from?

    Q-What is the origin of the phrase “Chinese Auction”?
    1. Refers to the phrase “not a Chinaman’s chance” i.e. not a chance at all.
    2. an insulting reference to the cheapness of the material being
    auctioned.
    3. A “Chinese” used to be a complimentary ticket to an entertainment or
    sporting event.
    4. A “Chinese fire drill” is something jumbled and mixed up. This might
    refer to the way the auction is run.

    In the early 1900’s a wealthy American socialite (believed to reside in NY) was looking for a novel idea to use for one of her fund-raising events for a charity in which she was involved. She came up with several ideas, but quickly rejected them because they were not quite novel enough for the times. (At that time something novel and unique quickly became the rage and if you were the socialite that introduced it then your social standing was elevated.) The socialite came up with the idea of a different type of auction to raise money for the charity. Various items would be displayed at the event and in front of each item would be a container (basket, bowl, jar–whatever). The guests would be invited to bid on the items by writing their names and the amount they wished to bid on a piece of paper and placing the paper in the container. It was all very discrete, private and unpublished–no one really knew who was bidding on what or what amount they were bidding.At that time anything and everything to do with the Orient or Orientals (as those terms were then in use) was considered mysterious, intriguing, secretive, exotic and maybe even a little provocative. The socialite came up with the phrase Chinese Auction because she felt that this type of auction was mysterious, intriguing, secretive. (http://www.phrases.org.uk/b…)
