Vintage Cross-Over Peg Puzzle by Crestline Manufacturing Co. – Mid-Century Wooden Brain Teaser

What you get inside

You get the original wooden pegboard, stylized pegs, and the inner box lid with the printed rules still readable. The board sits in a classic green base, with warm wood grain and a little wear that tells you it's been handled, not hidden away. Catalog No. 312, made in the U.S.A.

How it feels to play

This cross-over peg puzzle asks you to move each peg across the board without getting boxed in. It's small enough for a coffee table, but the moves make you slow down and think. Reach for it when you want a quiet challenge between hands of cards or after dinner.

Why collectors keep it out

Crestline Manufacturing Co. put real personality into the graphics and the shape of the set, which is why it works as display piece and tabletop game. If you collect mid-century wooden brain teasers or retro Americana, this one brings both the history and the hands-on part.
