The Toy Museum Deventer has a wonderful collection of board games, many of which were pre-war or from the war period. The museum has agreed that photos and other data from their database may also be used in the Catawiki games catalog. Over time, the data will be processed, supplemented as much as possible with additional background from, among other things, historical newspapers and other sources, where available. An example is the recently added “How is the stand, Mieke” by Jumbo from 1947, for which photos and data from the toy museum were used. The more precise date of 1947 has been added to Catawiki.

Great that we can use that data. They seem to have rare, old games in their collection.

Maybe we can also put a stack of Catawiki brochures at the toy museum! In return we could create a link page to museums that are helpful to us and that distribute the leaflets. That is also nice information for collectors and who knows, there may be a discount coupon for Catawiki users here and there.
It would also be nice if the Catawiki catalog of the relevant subject could be consulted in museums.

The new setup makes Catawiki definitely commercial. Photos of the Deventer Toy Museum were added to Catawiki on the condition that no commercial approach existed and must therefore now be removed.

The items from mortimer500 and Magny were also once performed from the promise that no commercial approach would be on Catawiki.

The structure of our catalog with affiliated shops has basically not changed for 6 years, as have the conditions for participation. You will therefore be pleased that, since September 15, we have even been 'cut off' from other commercial activities, such as auctions. As a result, we have become even more of a free collectors platform than we have ever been in recent years. Therefore, information cannot be deleted for the above reasons.

The new home page for collectors is this . Perhaps that is where the misunderstanding lies.

I actually thought that the photos you used on CataWiki would become public as soon as they are entered into the CataWiki Catalog. It is wonderful that the Deventer Toy Museum is entering its collection in the CataWiki Catalog, but under the CataWiki conditions, I think. After all, we are not allowed to request copyright for our images. Could it be an idea to have CataWiki sponsored by the Toy Museum?

I also think that references to the Deventer Toy Museum or any other link do not belong in the details. After all, it says nothing about the games.

And with regard to the agreement that was possible at the time, Arco is indeed right. However, it is not clearly visible to many that the collectors platform is now the "cut loose" version. That has also been discussed in another forum thread.

And yet just off-topic (?): I already had the idea that mortimer500 and magny weren't real persons! However, I have not yet come across Magny. What kind of games did it enter then?

Has the input for games etc. ever got off the ground via the Deventer toy museum? Since Hong's games are off the air (due to copyright issues) it is difficult to look up anything in terms of old games.

We have never again sought partners for bulk input. There was always a hassle.
