Description

"Camel Puzzle" and "Horse and Cow Puzzle." Both of these folding puzzles were produced in 1941 (thus making them 81 years old!) by the Strombeck Press of Moline, Illinois. Two years later, Harold Edborg (owner of the Strombeck Press) was granted patents for each puzzle, US Patent 2327876 for the Camel Puzzle and US Patent 2327875 for the Horse and Cow Puzzle. Both of these puzzles are in MINT condition! As such, I didn't want to unfold and try to flatten them for a photograph. However, I can direct you to photos of each on Rob's Puzzle Page. Scroll down just a bit.

I will ship within the US at insured priority mail pricing (from between $8.70 and 9.45, depending on postal code), or as a first class package for around $5.00, if preferred. I am happy to ship internationally at cost, but I cannot always guarantee that overseas packages can be insured or tracked.

Thank you for viewing my auction!
