 Category : Toys/GamesPuzzle of Teddy and the LionPrice: USD8.99 Classic Edition Limited to 1000 puzzles! Sam Loyd's last and most technically accomplished puzzle is the 'Puzzle of Teddy and the Lion', issued in 1909. The puzzle depicts Theodore Roosevelt surrounded by seven lions and seven spear carrying men and was said to have been inspired by Roosevelt's expedition to collect specimens for the Smithsonian. The cardboard that Sam Loyd used for his puzzle cards was specially selected by him. He wanted to ensure that it had the right balance of texture and thickness, to not only enhance his graphics, but to also give you the best in-hand embellishment when holding the card to solve it. The Sam Loyd Company has been able to recreate that same cardboard, as first used by Sam Loyd, using original sources. The cardboard is exclusively manufactured for our use and goes by the product code No.1868, in tribute to the release of the very first puzzle card. To ensure that you experience the puzzle cards just the way Sam Loyd intended you to, be sure to buy only cards created by The Sam Loyd Company. Each carry the Sam Loyd logo, which is a registered trademark and your guarantee of the highest quality.Other products from Puzzle Master |
