Kubusmix - Rik Brouwer
Maker - Pelikan
The design was driven by the admiration of geometrical shapes, especially compounds of polyhedra. The mix of two cubes has not only a surprisingly new interlocking principle, but its 3D shape is also a pleasure to watch.

take apart/put together cube-Eric Fuller
Another early Eric Fuller work. This is harder to put together than to take apart. The cube does not really hold together, so you have to be careful when holding it. However, the wood used was a very high quality one.

King's Crown-Kamei REPRODUCTION
This is an excellent reproduction of Kamei's work. You cannot get these any longer, and from what I have heard the quality of this puzzle is comparable to the ones Kamei himself made. Very good condition (the cross on the top can get loose but that is not part of the puzzle).

Vintage 4-Leaf Clover Keychain Puzzle
This is a vintage 4-Leaf Clover Keychain Puzzle from the 1950's. Says "GOOD LUCK" in large letters and in small letters, "made in USA" and "PAT PEND".
In excellent condition except for some bleeding of the orange plastic into neighboring pieces typical of the orange plastic used at this time. Normally this horseshoe was marketed with a horse head in the center, but this is a much rarer version with a clover leaf instead.

Stickman No 1 - Robert Yarger
Yes, this is one of those very rare Stickman No. 1 Puzzleboxes that started it all. But before you get all excited, I must tell you that, as my very first puzzlebox, this line really does not depict the quality that you have come to expect from Stickman boxes over the years.
.
While the mechanism in this box works exceptionally well, it is constructed of old scrap oak wood (not much to look at) and the finish is terrible. It is not a bad box, but is probably best suited for a collector who ...

Stickman Fulcrum (No 11) - Robert Yarger
This Stickman Fulcrum Puzzle Box (No. 11) is really not that difficult to solve (fairly trivial in fact). It requires only 6 moves to reach its two compartments. It is, however, visually stunning, with a depth of mechanism that begs to have it picked up and played with.
.
The box is 4.5” x 3” x 2.5” and is crafted from maple, purpleheart and wenge. It comes with its own full-color 4-page instruction booklet. I am not sure why this box was left over. It is in perfect working order ...

crafted by Pelikantheir description - analogous to the Garnet (#60) here is assembled a shape of a
triacontrahedron, made from two sets of 5 different pieces; the most

small version of the triacontrahedron ( 8 cm diameter with the solution
of two halves) into the hollow inside of a big triacontrahedron ( appr.
13 cm diameter in ballform with a solution of two halves + 2 extra key
