Details

Rules on the inside of the lid; brick-red colored round tokens, three wooden dice. Dimensions plate 34 x 33 cm. The box mentions the number K2185, with which the game can be dated between 1941 and about 1947. Given the use of color (which later became less due to scarcity of everything) and the absence of a so-called "GR-price" (introduced in December 1943, but only applied on a larger scale from around 1945), a date around 1942 is likely. This also corresponds to the type of die that is also from that period. The number K2185 belongs to the Stadler en Sauerbier printing company in Rotterdam, Schiebroek. The same printing company also made games for Luctor. The Javanese game could therefore also be from Luctor, but this is not certain. Luctor started publishing games in 1941.
