Description: Bizarre Crossword Variants- EXCELLENT CONDITION (2 pages w/markings). As seen in the pictures: the very first puzzle is completed, and there are some crazy doodles on the very last page... if not for those two things this book would qualify as "Like New" per eBay's "item condition" descriptions. I lost my Mamma recently completely unexpectedly and I'm having to part with some of her belongings to help cover the expense of being multiple states away from home, for far too long. I have no idea where this book came from, and brought it home on a whim... imagine my surprise when I saw the asking price! (See picture for eBay competitor asking price! Holy moly!!) Please ask if you have any questions, I will always be 100% transparent regarding the quality, and condition of items I’m selling!The product will be mailed in the exact condition described, if the packaging appears to have been damaged during shipping please take lots of pictures so I can file claims with the shipper!Thanks a bunch and have a blessed day!These puzzles are crazy . . . fun! Though they seem like crosswords, what with the clues and grids, they're really in a class all their own. Each one has its own bizarre variant: answers twist and turn, grids are arranged in Escher-like configurations or wrapped around a cube, or there may even be TWO sets of clues for a pair of identical grids. Think you're up to the challenge? This hefty book, with over 150 puzzles, is perfect for crossword lovers in search of something new.
