Is it a toy? Is it a puzzle?

Hmm ... :anerikke: ... bit of BOTH, actually!

How many of us of "a certain vintage" recall feverishly "pitting our wits" :23_111_9[1]: ... in an all too often :cwm24: forlorn attempt to twist into proper alignment, the gaily coloured squares comprising this unique device? the brainchild of Hungarian Professor Erno Rubik - whose eponymous creation [presumably] *earned [*pun intended] the guy a fortune (though, reportedly, no~one's privvy as to the amount) - more than four decades ago.
