Description

The object is to remove the band off the cigar.  Designed by Marcel Gillen and made by Bits and Pieces.

This puzzle is in its original packaging as Marcel presented it in the exchange at IPP23 in 2003.

It has been played with a couple of times and the cap of the cigar case is a bit dinged but it still screws on ok. The labelling is paper stuck to a cigar case but it’s in pretty good shape. Just a couple of crinkles from when it was originally glued I think.  You can see some wear on the ends of the cigar itself; maybe from playing but possibly from just being knocked around inside the metal cigar case too.

The photos are of the actual puzzle as it now looks.  The puzzle is machined aluminium.  Size: The cigar itself is 135mm long.

All prices in Australian Dollars (not US Dollars).  We much prefer payment via Wise because the charges are far less. But we can accept PayPal.

The puzzle will be shipped from Australia by Australia Post.

If we have other items listed and you buy more than one we’re happy to combine ship and quote postage based on weight.

Cost to ship this puzzle Standard:

Australia 10.00

NZ 21.00

US/Canada/EU/Asia  25.00

UK/Scandinavia 36.00

Other countries please request a quote.

Corky - Uncorked Wine Opener Brainteaser
The puzzle is to get the T-bar through the cylinder to enable the corkscrew to turn and open your wine. This is the plain white box used by the manufacturer of the puzzle – Bits and Pieces – with the original paper explaining the puzzle inside.  You can see from the photo the box has been opened and closed a bit. But the puzzle doesn't appear to have been played with.  There is also a sticker we put on the box with some advice for buyers to avoid spoilers when we sold it on the Mr...

6 Boards Burr (No. 1) by Juno
This puzzle is as it was presented by Juno in the IPP17 exchange in 1997 even though the copyright on the engraving is dated older as 1990. (No.1) does not mean there is only 1, it means it’s the first of many of these designs that Junichi has created over the years.The photo is of the actual puzzle and the small paper that was with it when given in the exchange. I have covered part of the paper which shows the pieces to avoid spoilers.  There's also a closer photo of one of the pieces ...
