Mr. Worrier collects things. He is especially proud of three of his collections : cartoon character figurines, thimbles, and salt and pepper shaker sets he’s found in antique stores. He displays these three kinds of curio in a prominently placed display cabinet. Each shelf, each column, and each of the two diagonals of cubbyholes contains exactly two of each kind of curio. Can you determine which curio is in each cubbyhole?



Shelf 1: the two shaker sets are not next to each other
Shelf 2: one figurine is immediately to the left of a shaker set, while the other figurine is immediately to the right of the other shaker set
Shelf 3: every thimble is somewhere to the left of every shaker set
Shelf 4: the shaker sets are somewhere between the two figurines
Shelf 5: the two figurines are next to each other
Shelf 6: every shaker set is to the left of every thimble

Column A: each pair of identical knickknacks is separated by two other knickknacks
Column B: the two figurines are somewhere between the two shaker sets
Column C: the two thimbles are somewhere between the two figurines
Column D: each figurine is immediately above a thimble
Column E: both figurines are somewhere above both thimbles
Column F: both shaker sets are somewhere above both figurines

Nice puzzle Pandora, and I think I am making progress
To that end can I check whether column A is as follows:

I have this set aside to look at but just can't seem to get to it.

You've got column A correct, flotsam.

Woo hoo

It's all process of elimination, ob. Give it a try.

I think I have it

It's just the time and concentration required, Pandora. I just haven't been able to get to it.
