Description provided (if any) when acquired:

“Two Mothers” is a 201-piece semi-linking puzzle that measures 17 x 11 inches. It is cut in a random style and includes some color-line cutting. There is one figural piece – a dog. The picture is from a Supplement to the Boston Sunday Globe, copyright 1907 by J. V. Sloan & Co. There are no missing pieces and all are original. Two knobs on the left edge are missing paper. Otherwise the puzzle is in very good condition showing only light wear.

“Two Mothers” comes in a stationery box which is probably original for the puzzle. The top is sturdy, but the bottom needs taping.

This puzzle is part of an extensive collection of vintage hand-cut puzzles formerly owned by the late Ann Bohner, known on eBay as “puzzled grannie.” The collection includes both push-fit and interlocking puzzles.
