Description
Six dissimilar pieces assemble into the Permuted Third Stellation. A Coffin design, described in PWBP but he never made any of these commercially. I believe, but am not 100% certain, that this one may have been made by Bertrand Portevin. It is one tricky puzzle. The fit is slightly loose however the puzzle assembles perfectly into both possible solutions.. I didn't intend to disassemble this one, until I took one step too far, looking for a signature. There are no markings I could detect hence my slight uncertainty about the maker. What I do know is these puzzles have only ever been made by a brave few!
******************************
This is one of a number of rare/collectible/hard to find puzzles that I (Steve Nicholls) am selling on behalf of Ethel Brokenshire. Those who knew Laurie will understand how well these have been looked after. The puzzles are being listed with modest starting prices, please bid generously.
******************************
I will be happy to combine shipping if you win multiple items. The incremental shipping cost for second and subsequent items is only likely to be a couple of dollars or so.
