On the 100th Anniversary of the 1915 Gallipoli Landings
we have two Pitfall Dexterity Puzzles made at the time.
THE WAY TO CONSTANTINOPLE
Roll the ball up the ramp on the left-hand side and try to reach Constantinople avoiding all the obstacles. Made for Hamleys of London.
LONDON TO CONSTANTINOPLE
Is even more challenging, made of very heavily embossed card, you must take the ball on an extensive tour of maritime Europe ending up in Constantinople.
The card base is slightly convex which adds to the difficulty. We are not certain if this is part of the original design or just a sign of old age. Likewise We are not certain who made the ELDON Series. Please let us know if you can help on this.
