A game by cartoonist Carey ORR (USA - 1925)

And whatever you can’t finish in your own lifetime, you can pass along to the next generation !

A funny face, made with 11 wood blocks :

top of head

right eyebrow

left eyebrow

right ear

right eye

left eye

left ear

mouth right side

nose and medium of the mouth

mouth right side

chin

Thru the holes in the bottom of tray, push one block out, give a turn or rotate block to next design, then note change of expression . This can be done with any one of the blocks, making one turn at a time ; operate this way as often as desired, giving you millions of changes, with any combinations :

With this toy, you have 4.194.304 different face combinations !

11 blocks with each having 4 different possible, viewable sides the resulting combination is 4¹¹(4 to the 11th power, or 4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4x4 !)

If you turn a block each minute, 8 hours per day, 6 days per week (you rest Sunday, nevertheless !) and 52 weeks per annum, you can do it in exactly 28 years, 8 hours, 58 minutes and 48 seconds !

So, the hour of play is not expensive, mmmh?
