“This puzzle has an interesting history. The one symmetrical face of the assembled puzzle happens to resemble a certain corporate logo. The company wanted a simple puzzle incorporating this pattern for some sort of promotional scheme. So the arrangement of six of the blocks was already determined. All that was required to complete the design was the addition of four more blocks in a sort of triangular pyramid and a judicious choice of glue joints to make it into an interesting interlocking puzzle. So the company got what they wanted - except for one thing. It turned out to be anything but simple! Do not be discouraged if you cannot solve it straight away - it has baffled experts!”

“This classic Stewart Coffin design was one of the first puzzles I ever made. And to this day remains one of my favorites. It contains all of the elements that are inherent in a great puzzle, relatively few pieces, an elegant look when solved and the impression that it is much easier than it really is!”
