Description


Here is the exceedingly rare

Purple Puzzle Tree LP and Book Collection.

Included here are Sets 1 through 5.

**PLEASE NOTE**: Unfortunately, Set 6 is missing.

All components of Sets 1 through 5 are present. There are 6 books accompanying each album, titled "Purple Puzzle Pieces" 1 through 30.

The condition of the sets is very nice. The cellophane is still on the album sleeve of Set 1, and all 5 LPs look to be in great condition. There is very little use evident, although I did not play any of the LPs.

There are a few pieces of clear tape applied to the box corners of Set 1 to secure some corner tears, but the other boxes are fully intact. There is some wear and scuffing to the external boxes, but the booklets and inside contents are in extremely nice condition.

The outer boxes of the sets are stamped with the following:

St. Thomas The Apostle Church
Religious Center
2151 Stillwater Ave.
St. Paul, MN 55119

Although it is a shame that the final volume, Set 6, is missing, this is a very nice set of a very rare item.

About the Purple Puzzle Tree

Norman Habel wrote the stories in the late 1960s.  They were trialled at Bethel School and eventually published in the early 1970s by Concordia Publishing House in sets.  Each set comprised 6 books and a vinyl recording. The artist for the books was Tom Roberts.


This set will be carefully packed and shipped fast.

Thanks for looking!!
