Description

Ok gang... let's get serious for a moment. THIS is my oldest IPP puzzle I have. During only the 6th IPP Nob Yoshigahara offered this treat. The goal is to make the left arrow shape with the pieces that are stationary and the ones loose in the puzzle.

IF you are an IPP puzzle collector, I am talking to you. This puzzle is nearing 40 years old and is in fantastic condition. The black and white puzzle, frame, and pieces look amazing. There is even a hook already installed on the back to hang on your wall, if you are so inclined. This puzzle isn't just rare, it is CRAZY rare!!!

This is rare, premium, IPP history, made my a puzzle-master, and waiting for you.
