Description
This puzzle has me absolutely baffled. It has all the hallmarks of a coffin design and manufacture and was with the other Coffin puzzles. However, I've been unable to confirm the name of this puzzle and there are no visible markings on it.
The exterior looks like Coffins Egyptian (23-A) which is a version of Scrambled Scorpius, but this one has six identical pieces rather than six different pieces. It, therefore, appears to be a truncated Scorpius rather than a truncated Scrambled Scorpius.
I wonder if Laurie picked up a prototype or similar from Stewart. The puzzle is well made and in excellent condition.
******************************
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.
