"Made in China" is nothing new! Just read an article a few minutes ago on the history of Wuhan (where the new coronavirus started). It seems that around 1900 the vast majority of the world's horseshoes were made there. Also sewing needles, powdered eggs, hog hair bristles (used in toothbrushes) and more. The international buyers of these Chinee products were just as crooked then as now, having the goods stamped with such false statements as "Made in Hamburg", "Made in USA", "England", etc.
