Catalogue information
Estimated year. Piet Marée (Gouda, 1903 - unknown, 1999) was a Dutch graphic designer and son of a blacksmith based in Gouda. His first employer was publishing house Van Goor in Gouda. When this firm left for The Hague, Marée went along and soon became a graphic designer-illustrator of children's books, among other things. He also worked as an editor and designer at the Haagsche Post. After a stay of five years in Australia, he settled in 1955 at a number of addresses in Zeist and Utrecht and started Piet Marée Productions. Selecta started making children's products in 1945 and started in Deventer in 1967. It is likely that this lottery game dates from the period before Maree's stay in Australia, as he was also living in The Hague at the time. Dating therefore between 1945 and 1950.
