Type-8: PICTURE PUZZLES

If you've never seen any of these, you're missing out. I've Xeroxed them from books such as "Aha - Gotcha" by Martin Gardiner. The Leprechaun one is a classic. You have 3 pieces of paper arranged to make a picture with 15 leprechauns. You swap the 2 top pieces, and low-and-behold, you only have 14 leprechauns. Is that crazy, or what?
