Catalogue information
Estimated year. Bookseller, publisher and scrap paper dealer C.J. Koster worked under the name Gebr. Koster. According to Waller, this business had been around since 1829. In 1908, the publishing activities under the name Gebr. Koster continued in Bussum, together with Jan Rinke and Han Hoekstra, among others. Mainly prints and books were published, but also some games. The Boerenschroom game, given the interchangeable spelling "Hollands" on the packaging and "Hollandsch" in the game rules, will probably be from around the Second World War. The maps also show a knowledge number (used from the end of 1941 until shortly after the war), which means that a date is likely to be around 1945.
