Nieuw colombine spel of pantalon vervolger / Le nouveau jeu de colombine 1822 - 1837

"Nieuw colombine spel of pantalon vervolger / Le nouveau jeu de colombine" is a board game designed by Jacob Plügger in the Netherlands between 1822 and 1837. The game board is printed on a sheet of paper and depicts a series of illustrated scenes that relate to the popular Commedia dell'arte characters Colombine and Pantalone. Each scene is numbered and players would move their pieces around the board, playing a game of chance. The board game, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, is a unique example of a Dutch board game design from the 19th century.
