Blue Rhino Maps
and Kumiliki Board Games
Inside African Art is the only authorized
distributor of Blue Rhino maps in America. Others may or may not be distributing
authentic Blue Rhino maps. But with us, you can be sure of authenticity.
Blue Rhino has been producing these incredible
maps for as long as I can remember, and I am going back 13 years with this
website and nearly 24 years in East Africa. The Blue Rhino shops are extremely
popular in Nairobi, they have two branches - one in ABC Plaza in Westlands,
and the other in the Village Market in Girgiri - located near the United Nations
facility and the US embassy. These maps are one of Blue Rhinos shops biggest sellers - but they don't have a website!
I used to get a lot of requests for contact information
for Blue Rhino and how people can get in touch with them to inquire further into
how they can purchase a map. So on my recent trip to Kenya I spoke with the
manager of the Blue Rhino shop at ABC Plaza and told her about the dilemma of
those looking for maps. She said that I should consider being the distributor for the
maps in the US, and that if anyone wanted a map she would supply me - and she
also gave me a good deal on maps from assorted countries, which I have posted
here.
The maps are detailed in their attention to
geographical precision, but are also adorned with historical and illustrative
elements that make them unique and fascinating.
To date, these are all of the country maps
that are produced by Blue Rhino. If you do not see them here, they are not
produced at this time.
If you are interested in any of these 'old-style'
maps, please
let me know.
Note: We have
limited quantities in stock, see below for quantities.
However, I have access to as many as you need. I
can have maps to you in a short time no matter where you are.

In a huge departure for this
website, I am adding a unique and fascinating new product:
The Blue Rhino - Kumiliki Property
Game |
|

Contents of Kumiliki Soapstone Edition |

Sorry about the flashbulb glare - I wanted to
get a nice bright close-up of the actual properties.
Seems like I lived in half of these places!
|

Premium Soapstone Edition with hand-carved
soapstone hotels and houses - and playing tokens! |
|
Of course you have played
Monopoly - but did you know that there's a Monopoly game based entirely on
Nairobi, Kenya and its environs?
This incredible game replaces
Boardwalk and Park Place with Muthaiga (area where President Mwai Kibaki
resides) and Karen (home of Karen Blixen of the Out of Africa, "I had a farm
at the foot of the Ngong Hills..." fame.
There are two editions:
Soapstone Edition: All of the hotels,
houses, and tokens are hand-carved out of soapstone - they look more like
huts!
Standard Edition: All of the token are
hand-carved from soapstone, but the hotels and houses are made of regular
Monopoly-style plastic.
Both editions come with the
Monopoly-style Chance (Bahati) and Community Chest (Harambee) cards, as well
as Mortgage cards with full explanation of debts and rentals - and of
course, everything is paid for in Kenya Shillings! |
|
To learn more about international Monopoly, there is really only one place
to go, and that's straight to Albert C. Veldhuis - the
World's Global and Foremost Monopologist. To view his website, and to read
