Description
The Checkerboard Puzzle by the Strombeck Press in Moline Illinois is an unusual 14-piece checkerboard puzzle in that a) the checkered pieces are white and yellow, and b) the pieces contain text from scripture (!). Based on other Strombeck Press puzzles, the Checkerboard Puzzle dates from 1941, making it 82 years old! Both the container and pieces are in SUPERB condition. The puzzle has 84 solutions, and I will included a sealed copy of 14 of the solutions from the great Jacques Haubrich's A Century of Checkerboard Puzzles.
I will ship within the US as a first class package for around $6.00 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!
