Damaged puzzle pieces
These are from Nathan 600 piece Mucha The Four Times of Day. I was looking forward to do this puzzle, but unfortunately when I opened the puzzle bag and started sorting the pieces, I discovered that the pieces are heavily damaged.
At first I assumed that the damage was only to the box (as can be seen on my photo of it) but it looks like the poor conditions in which this puzzle was stored affected the pieces as well.
It seems that it was kept in a very damp place, where the humidity damaged the pieces. There is a lot of discoloration on individual pieces, which is especially prominent on the light pink border. Also, some pieces have physical damages as well.
I was very disappointed with this, so I put the puzzle back in the bags, and probably won't be building it. Hopefully there will be another copy of it for sale at some point, in better condition...
Did anybody else have similar experience? Is there a way perhaps to restore the pieces?
