Burning Puzzle Trivia

Does anyone own: - Any Circular puzzles with a black outer box bottom? There are a small number of circular puzzles that are normally found with a white box bottom, but which were briefly manufactured with a glossy black box bottom. I know of 4 puzzles with this variation, and would like to track down any others: C922 - The Best 18 Golf Holes in America (box bottom shown at left) C944 - The Gods on Mount Olympus PZL6002 - 10 Top Ski Runs in America PZL6006 - Last Chance on Earth

Serendipity 3 version of Little Red Riding Hood's Hood Does anyone own: - A copy of this puzzle in better condition? - A copy of the Serendipity 3 version of "Snow White without the Seven Dwarfs"? - A copy of the Serendipity 3 version of "Close-up of the Three Bears"?

Phantom Serial Numbers

The following serial numbers are often referred to as the "phantom serial numbers." They're listed in a well known Springbok puzzle booklet (*see below), but their existence remains shrouded in mystery. I don't own any of them, and neither does anyone I know. But maybe you do! If so, it would be a treat to hear from you.

PZL2021 Table of the Muses (probably meant to be PZL6021) PZL2044 Tibetan Mandala (probably meant to be PZL6016) PZL6003 Winter Scene (probably meant to be C939) PZL6004 The Adoration of the Kings (probably meant to be C933) PZL6019 Bouquet of Flowers (probably meant to be C919) PZL6030 Snow White (probably meant to be PA21) PZL6035 Closeup of the Three Bears (probably meant to be PA22) PZL8003 Mares and Foals (probably meant to be O107)
