On a Question of Grätzer and Lakser from the 1971 {\sl Transactions of the American Mathematical Society}

Grätzer and Lakser asked in the 1971 {\sl Transactions of the American Mathematical Society} if the pseudocomplemented distributive lattices in the amalgamation class of the subvariety generated by ${\bf 2}^n\oplus{\bf 1}$ can be characterized by the property of not having a $*$-homomorphism onto ${\bf 2}^i\oplus{\bf 1}$ for $1<i<n$. In this article, this question is answered. If you want to know the answer, you will have to read it (or skip to the last section).
