Havermout Kwartetspel
H-O Kwartetspel children’s card game promoting Havermout quick cooking oatmeal, 1930s. There are 10 sets of four cards, each with a rhyme promoting affordable and healthy porridge for every occasion. This game has a very home made feel about it, the box looks like it has been made from one of the product boxes printed on the inside and cut down to make a box for the cards. Reading around the 4 box sides it reads Het “H-O Kwartetspel voor de lange Avonden” (Quartet Game for those long evenings). See the Box►
