"Circus". Designed and made by the late Tad Muroi. Tad Muroi was a Japanese school teacher with many different skills. One of his hobbies was designing and making puzzles. They were always beautifully made, no two were ever the same, and he always gave them away as gifts. His puzzles are much sought after by collectors but are of course nearly impossible to find. This example based on Disney characters is a Tanglement puzzle - You must remove and replace the chain.
Tad Muroi died in 2000 and is much missed by the puzzle community.
