VINTAGE Victory SUPERCUT Gold Box 900pc wooden jigsaw puzzle

  
A wonderful vintage Victory Supercut Gold Box jigsaw puzzle entitled An Ancient Marketplace. The artist, Amedee Forestier, was an Anglo-French artist and illustrator who specialised in historical scenes. The puzzle is made from plywood finely cut into 900 interlocking pieces including lots of whimsies. The Supercut range of puzzles has the added difficulty of a wavy edge and colour line cutting. The standard of cutting is quite exceptional, some of the pieces are so small that I thought they were broken from larger ones, but no.

The extent of the colour line cutting is amazing. A very enjoyable puzzle, not one to be rushed. I believe this is a very early example from the Supercut range, the gold paper on the box is embossed which I haven't seen before. The box label doesn't state the dimensions of the finished puzzle which is also unusual. It measures 18" x 28".

The puzzle is in excellent. Missing pieces although three have been professionaly replaced (see centre of photos 4 - 6) One piece was replaced some time ago (see photo 7) One miniscule piece has broken off I think, it's so small I can't be sure (see photo 8). The original box has one split corner on the lid but overall is in good condition. The item "VINTAGE Victory SUPERCUT Gold Box 900pc wooden jigsaw puzzle" is in sale since Thursday, April 2, 2020.
