Professor Branestawm

Professor Branestawm : Does anyone remember a series of books from the early 70's about professor brainstorm. He wore several pairs of glasses simultaneously and invented stuff. Apparently the illustrations are by Heath Robinson.

Professor Branestawm books flourished approx. 1950. They may have not survived into the 1970s.

I was lucky in that the schools I went to in the 70s had several Professor Branestawm books which became my favourites :)

The original fiendishly difficult puzzle,

now with solution guide

The original fiendishly difficult puzzle, invented by Erno Rubik in Hungary and one of the biggest toy crazes ever. In 1982 Hawkin's Bazaar was the first to bring a few cases of the Rubik's Cube to England. Unfortunately 25 years ago we were very small and it wasn't long before a much larger company had the exclusive rights to distribute in the UK. We are very pleased to be offering it again! And now includes a new seven step solution guide.
