vintage wooden jigsaw puzzle, box reads PUZZLES FOR GROWN UPS AND SHUT INS… IN THE PASTURE 11 x 17 291 PIECES (measures a bit smaller) there’s a stamp inside the box which could be the puzzle cutter or the box maker- ??? pieces are only occasionally interlocking which is the mark of an older puzzle. might be one of a kind like a par puzzle would be, i couldn’t find much info on the maker so i would think pretty rare.
measurements- i measured the completed puzzle at around 10 3/4″ by 15 3/4″. the box condition- overall nice and bright, there are three pieces in the black and white cow that are broken and reglued, two with dark brown glue and one with clear, someone sketched the puzzle on the bottom and noted complete, dated 1987. box is torn on one corner as shown. on the puzzle i see a little wear to the top right corner, there may be minor lifts at corners of some pieces here and there but it really is nice for the age.
