Graphic representation of the periodic table of chemical elements designed as a series table consisting of two parts that are arranged like mirror-images of one another. This table was originated by German chemist Egon Wiberg (1901-1976) in 1936 and classified by chemist Edward G. Mazurs as Type IIC2-6 in his seminal work Types of Graphic Representation of the Periodic System of Chemical Elements (1957). This table appears as Figure 58 on page 128 of Mazurs' 1957 publication.
