John Berkey’s “Harvest Time” TUCO Puzzle!!
Artist & Berkey fan GREG PRO told me he used to have one of these years ago, and he passed it onto a friend — so I knew this puzzle existed — I have looked for it and looked for it over the past 4 years, but it never showed up until March 2013…

“The First Thanksgiving”
A super-rare 1960’s Berkey puzzle that no one has seen in ages!
BELOW: Notice the figure on the left that was not shown on the box art!
This puzzle is so rare that the Berkey family didn’t even have a copy of it! I had an extra, so in February 2011 I gave it to Demi Berkey…
