Early Hand-colored Six Sided Victorian Picture Puzzle (Missing a Few Blocks) e.w. deming she fit perfectlyThere are a few cubes missing from this picture puzzle, and a split in the lid of its original wooden box, but it's an early one, c. 1850s or so I believe, and a lovely one, and I always love an image of girl with her loyal dog companion! It's a fairly challenging one, too, requiring more than a simple turn of blocks to move from one image to the next, but there is a logic to it all (though I know I've got a few blocks out of place in the photos!)
