Jigsaw Puzzles

Charles Wysocki : Large Pieces : Buffalo Games

May be a little too easy for some, but great for new people or those with limited dexterity and or eye sight

Carl Warner - Food Landscapes - older USA made Ceaco with different cut pieces than newer Ceaco by Buffalo puzzles.

First puzzle of The New Year. Got this one cheap on Amazon. The quality was ok, but the color palette made some sections fairly tricky.

This is one of the best puzzles we own, it is well made and fun to do

This was not an easy puzzle, it took much longer than usual. Springbok uses unusual shapes and needs a little extra effort to push some of the pieces together, but is not a fragile puzzle once together.

box:

This was $5 (US) on Amazon. Not an easy puzzle. It might be easy if you divide it up into 6 smaller puzzles using the letters on the back of each piece to sort.

Trickier than it looks

No name on the box, but I found the same puzzle on Ebay with an address that led to Edaron:

Edaron, Inc. was founded in 1974. The Company's line of business includes the manufacturing of Puzzles and Games for adults and children.

In 2020 Edaron partnered with Buffalo games and became Edaron LLC.

Edaron LLC. operates in the United States.

This thrift shop find was a little worn but still enjoyable.

My first go at a 3D puzzle that my son got for Christmas. It was fun and hard to get going with all the white and figuring out how it worked. They had numbers on the back which I admit I used to check sometimes but not much.

Not the easiest puzzle, but this thrift shop puzzle was in great condition.

I saw this post here a while back and was inspired to pick up the Kodak version of the puzzle for myself.

As pointed out in the previous post, the image in the two puzzles appears to be the same, but the Kodak version has a few differences. The main difference is the different crop. The Kodak version has the church centered.

Another difference is the change in the sky. The newer version has a fake Blu sky with clouds applied over the original.

The difference I find the most bizarre, though, is the color tone differences. The colors in the puzzle in the older post are a much more accurate representation of reality, while the colors in the newer version have the contrast turned up so high that the red looks radioactive. Unfortunately my camera doesn't capture them it well, but the leaves look like the heat vision from the movie The Predator. Hilariously, Kodak advertises "richer, truer colors!" on the box.

This is from our personal collection, do it about one time a year. The trees and snow are more challenging than I prefer but overall a good puzzle.

We found this at a local thrift shop, missing 1 piece but I still enjoyed working on it.

Borrowed this puzzle from a friend. Wentworth puzzles are so nice.

Lovely jigsaw, really nice picture, fun to have the blurry reflection of the top half.

Great "Sale" Puzzle

I could not resist this sale priced puzzle, not the best quality but OK for the price.
