Catalogue information
Copy of details for 7930333: Illustrators and publisher not named. Year estimated based on color litho front cover. The games were printed on the pages, but also on the inside of the covers. Information via a books and games expert: Period: 1900-1930 They are called games books. Well-known Dutch editions: about 40 including variants. The back often contained advertising from a company that could also change so that there could be multiple versions of each book. The inner sheet was often torn loose from the binding (to make playing easier). The first game books from this category in the Netherlands is the "Six Games" folder by Koster from 1882, although the games were not yet stapled together as a booklet, but as separate plates in a folder. The principle came from America, where McLaughlin first published two of these booklets in 1870 under the title "Home Games for Little Girls" and "Home Games for Little Boys".
