This is a 14-Piece checkerboard puzzle,
likely from the 1930's, produced by the D&S Novelty Company of
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania. The pieces are to be punched out of a sturdy
cardboard folder, and each square is 7/16 x 7/16 inches (10 x 10 mm).
The puzzles are intact and in NEAR MINT condition. THE WINNING BIDDER
WILL RECEIVE TWO COPIES OF THE PUZZLE --- one to keep intact for
collecting purposes, and one with which to play. Both puzzles come with
their original glassine envelopes! Because one of the glassine envelopes is damaged (see second puzzle shown in third photo; the puzzle itself is in mint condition!), the starting price for the pair is only $13. The puzzle has 84 solutions. I
will send a sealed copy of 12 of the solutions to the winning bidder.
I will ship within the US as a ground advantage (first class) package for around $6.00, or at insured priority mail pricing from between
$9.45 and $10.40, depending on postal code. I am happy to ship
internationally at cost, but I cannot always guarantee that overseas
packages can be insured or tracked.
