The listing, NEW 1970s Large GRAPHIC and OP-ART MAZES BOOK has ended.
Up for bid is a Maze book purchased with a lot of books back in the 1970s. It's an 8½" x 11" softcover edition. My daughters loved these books, and I purchased many over the years. This one, for some reason, didn't get used. It is just like new! Still a clean, tight copy!
Contains 40 original mazes by Dave Phillips. Visually interesting (the maze is one of the oldest and most beautiful of puzzles)! Seven are in full color; the rest in black and white. Op-art effects with visual illusions, 3-D mazes, etc. There are solutions in the back of the book. This is a 1976 Dover publication.
I helped with a Girl Scout troop in the late 70s, and we copied mazes from similar books for the girls to work on for some kind of badge. This would be a great idea for summer camp groups, or something to do at the cabin on a rainy day!
Recommended age range is 11 and up, but my girls did them at 8 years, because they were really into this kind of stuff.
If you like mazes, you will LOVE this book!
