Is there any chance you could take a photo of it next to maybe the Super Cubi for a size comparison? I'd find that interesting to see.
I'll do it when I get home later. (I may also take a photo of it open if my wrists recover as it's gorgeous inside)

That is a nice puzzle, in the same appearance (and just as hard to open) as
"open & shut case" by livewire
That Eureka page has been there for about a year now, I wonder if they really have it in stock.
Last year I was lucky to find a second hand copy (for a much more reasonable price).
I did not manage to open it until I ignored the instructions...

Rumors are that Norman Sandfield made more puzzles in the same briefcase format. I would be interested to hear/read more about that, does anyone know of their existence or even availability?
