The Telegraph promotes a widespread Puzzle Test of Skill with a big prize, inviting readers to find objects beginning with the letter B. No money is required to win, but subscriptions unlock larger prize lists and a chance at top prizes. Get busy, join the fun, and compete for the rewards.
Notice instructs readers to mail completed lists by midnight February 15 for counting in a test. Prohibits paper staff or their immediate families from submitting and requires single sided sheets, alphabetical order, and numbered words. Include full name and address on each sheet.
Readers are invited to spot and list all articles and objects starting with the letter B in a contest of skill. The prompt notes there are buggy baby hoy box and more, with no concealment and no upside down viewing required. Participants should submit the longest correct list of B items.
An ad argues that no money is required to compete and prizes are shown in column one. Readers are told that sending a single Telegraph subscription proves interest and yields a larger prize if selected as a winner, with the option to double it by sending two subscriptions.
The contest promises five prizes for the five best lists submitted. The entry with the largest and closest correct list wins first prize, followed by second through fifth for the remaining high quality lists.
