Catalogue information
The pictures of this game were provided by Jeffrey Collij. A rarely seen game from the Smeets & Schippers collection from the early 1960s. In those years the publisher was expanding its collection with, among others, the well-known games Cluedo and Carriere and also advertised for this in the lids of the Monopoly editions. Kriptomix was first mentioned in the box with the lid showing advertisements for 7 games in 1961. The game contains money similar to that used in the Monopoly editions since 1963. However, the name 'Kriptomix' is mentioned on the notes. The set depicted here also contains a check receipt of the type used by Smeets & Schippers in the period 1963 to around 1966. the coupon has the number 1751 and has the address of N.V. Smeets & Schippers, Herengracht 134 in Amsterdam C. The box also carries the name 'Mony Games'. It is not known whether this game was issued by S&S under license from this company or whether S&S planned to use this name itself as a test balloon for a possible new line of games (which in any case has not been continued).
