Rare Fire Plug Puzzle - Marcel Gillen - Smith Estate
Availability: In stock
Collection: All Products, Antiques/Estate, Other
This puzzle is another one of Marcel Gillen's designs and like the name it bears, looks rather like a fire hydrant.
The Fire Plug is a very heavy puzzle with a ball burnished cylindrical body made out of aluminum (most likely by cast molding). Inserted into the sides of the cylinder are 2 brass pegs, each 2 1/2in long with a cross-section diameter of about 5/8in. On one end of one of the pegs are the initials M and G. The cylinder body is 3 1/4in tall with a diameter of 1 5/8in.
The object of the puzzle is to extract the brass pegs from the Fire Plug to reveal a hidden item within the puzzle.
