Believed to date from the late 1800s, these sheets show charming illustrated figures of children in colors that remain surprisingly bright after more than a century.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe set includes 15 original paper cards numbered 1-10 and 12-16, along with 15 reproduction copies - almost certainly made by a previous owner so the fragile originals could stay safely tucked away. The originals show honest age wear including edge toning and a few corner tears. The wooden blocks are not included.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePurchased from a London antique shop in the late 1980s and kept in smoke-free, climate-controlled storage for nearly 30 years since. A lovely find for the puzzle collector, ephemera enthusiast, or anyone looking for a striking set of framed wall art.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dave's Discovery Den","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67543428726998,"sku":"10-06-2026-039","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0822\/0337\/7878\/files\/10-06-2026-039-01.jpg?v=1791334383","url":"https:\/\/www.davesdiscoveryden.com\/products\/antique-block-puzzle-guide-cards-15-originals-15-copies-late-1800s","provider":"Dave's Discovery Den","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
