Faust and Marguerite-Apparition

Catalog Code: 
P- 198
Description: 

Pastime puzzle made in the 1910s by Parker Brothers; 60 figure pieces; color line cutting. Also from Act I of "Faust" by Charles Gounod, with Mephistopheles conjuring up an image of Marguerite to enthrall Faust into his "bargain with the devil" but by a different artist (unknown) and a different perspective from the previous puzzle. Personally, I think the image of the devil here is superb!
