Question:
Someone recently told me that they had spotted me in
jigsaw puzzle about 10 years ago of people running the NYC
Marathon. I have been looking high and low for this puzzle
but can not find it. It is NOT "See How They Run", the
Springbok puzzle. There is apparently another NYC Marathon
jigsaw puzzle out there -- any help you can provide would
be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

Question:
Dear Sirs: I have a very old puzzle which is, with the
exception of one or two pieces, is exactly like your 14
piece 8 X 8 checker board puzzle. It is black and white
squares and made of box or bristle board. I am sure it is
over 70 years old but has survived all these years in
pretty good shape. If I recall correctly, she got it with
a bag of flour, rolled oats or oatmeal or she wrote away
for the puzzle to a flour company or the like. I am
curious about the history of this puzzle and wonder if you
could help? Perhaps there is someplace on line that
discusses the history of puzzles or a puzzle museum?
Any help that you could provide would certainly be
appreciated.
Thank you, Brian B.

Question:
Hi
I have this puzzle, it's a block of wood (11inches long,
2.5in high and 1in wide) with 3 equal slots cut in it and
an 8 inch nail running through the centre. Both ends are
solid with no evidence that a hole was there to get the
nail in. How did it get in (it is a solid/one piece nail
apparently) and how do you get it out?
Thanks
Dan.

I had bought a puzzle like it a daughter-in-laws as a

remember the puzzle maker. I have no way of contacting her

Question: I
purchased my daughter a puzzle from her school book fair. The name of the
puzzle is The Crazy Hearts Game. It's created by Price Stern Sloan, a
member of Penguin Putnam Books. I've tried going to there website, which
was no help, and I've been trying off and on throughout the day the figure
this one out. There are nine pieces and they must form a square. Each
piece has a picture in the center with a partial picture on each side of
the puzzle card. Three of the pieces have obvious ends, but I can't figure
out the others. Please tell me you've heard of this card puzzle game.

Question:
I recall playing a game with matchsticks or cocktail
sticks in my uni days where you start with 3 rows - 3 , 5
and 7. You take in turns with removing any number of
matchsticks but only from 1 row. You take in turns with
your challenger. The aim of the game is to cause your
challenger to have to remove the last matchstick.
