Find the RABIT, IPP 13 exchange, 1993 The Netherlands

The original puzzle is called "Question du Lapin" made by WATILLIAUX around 1900. The puzzle was republished in cardboard in 1985 by a Dutch magazine "Margriet". They changed the flower and the flowerpot into a whale and a chicken.I made this on transparent overhead sheet. In 1993 you were still allowed to come with a copy. Nowadays you have to participate with your own design.
