The Wood Puzzle Series® is Danish design based upon an idea by the Japanese profes-sor Mr. Nob Yoshigahara.

Mr. Nob Yoshigahara is world famous on his field. He has invented numerous puzzles,

has written more than 70 books, and is a great collector of puzzles, with probably the biggest puzzle collection in Japan. He prefers small and simple puzzles. "To puzzle is to play, it must be fun!" Therefore, the greatest puzzles are quite simple, yet very surprising, at the same time.

The-T puzzle is actually developed from a classic. A tea company in New York originally used this brilliant game in 1903 to promote their White Rose Ceylon Tea. At the time, it was made as a cardboard flyer, and the challenge was simple and made a pun out of the words: "Make the T(ea)". Only this one figure could be made.

Later on, the idea was used by Amour's in Chicago to promote sausages. During the 1970s, Mr. Nob Yoshigahara evolved the idea to change the proportions of the pieces in a way that would increase the number of possible solutions. The result is
The-T, now sold in Europe. Click Sales for further info.
