This is a Vintage and Rare Eight Men On A Raft game. The puzzle
appears to be quite old and is made by Wm F Drueke & Sons, Inc, Grand
Rapids, Mi 49504. The 4 1/4 x 1 1/2 inches, made of solid walnut. The
pegs may or may not be original. The movement rules are included on
the underside of the box, pieces are included inside the box,
accessible by a metal slide...quite unique! In great
condition...please to present to you collectors, as I was unable to
locate this particular puzzle on the internet!

Here is a more complete set of instructions that I found on the
internet regarding this puzzle:

8 Men on a Raft is a fun peg board game for one. You start with the 4
pegs on one side and the other 4 pegs on the other side, with the
center hole open. The objective is to change ends with the colors by
moving one peg at a time either into an adjacent open hole, or by
jumping over 1 peg. Pegs may only be moved forward. For kids ages 5
up.
