Description

Wood block with 36 holes. Object is to place 6 pins in such a way that no 2 pins are in the same row, column or diagonal. There is a hole in the side of the block for the pins, but they (and the probably cork stopper) are missing. The game advertises the World's Educator, a game from W.S. Reed from 1887. The puzzle is a premium marked from "L.E. Stables" or something similar, as the stamp is hard to read.

With the puzzle is a copy of an 1886 patent by A.W. Butterworth that describes this game.

(Note - You can pay in dollars or euro, by PayPal or bank transfer, or by $ check in the U.S.)
