Antique German Victorian Picture Cube Puzzle, Complete Lithograph Block Set With Box
$40.00
Display it open on a library shelf, nursery cabinet, or coffee table as a complete piece of Victorian childhood, or carefully assemble all six pictures and enjoy the same puzzle a child played with more than a century ago.
This antique German six-sided picture cube puzzle is complete. Every wooden cube is present, all six scenes assemble correctly, and the set includes three bright double-sided guide cards. The lithographed paper on the cubes shows honest age with wrinkles, rubbing, and surface wear. The colors on the guide cards remain especially vivid.
The original box is present, but the lid is detached and rests on top because the hinges are no longer attached. It can be enjoyed as found or restored with new hinges by its next owner. Box measures approximately 10.5 in wide, 9.5 in tall, and 2.5 in deep.
Item details: Subject: six-sided lithographed wooden picture cube puzzle. Maker or brand: unmarked German manufacture. Era: 1900s. Origin: Germany. Style: Victorian and Edwardian antique children’s toy. Materials: wood, lithographed paper, cardboard, metal hinge remnants. Measurements: Box approx. 10.5 in W x 9.5 in H x 2.5 in D.

Colors remain bright. Box lid is detached and needs new hinges. Every known flaw, repair, missing part, or area of wear is described here and shown in the photographs. Please review every image before purchasing.
Packaging: Cubes, cards, box, and detached lid will be protected separately to prevent additional paper and edge wear. Reusable and recycled packing materials may be used when they provide the safest protection.
The Wander House sourcing story: Every piece is found by me in person at estate sales, old homes, dusty garages, sheds, and the forgotten corners where worthwhile objects are still waiting. I do not buy ready-to-resell inventory from resale apps. I bring each piece home, clean it, inspect it, research it, photograph it, and choose it because I can still see the life it has left. Prices are kept fair so these pieces can move on, while still helping them reach someone who will value what made them worth saving.
