Educa 3000pc James Bond's Island DSC02050
The host of the June 2018 BCD Meeting is a cardboard jigsaw enthusiast, so we were all keen to bring along some stunning cardboard jigsaws from our collections, and to include them in our show & tell items. Many of these I've felt compelled to buy because I've seen photos in flickr groups - thanks guys! However, this one is entirely my own fault - I spotted it c2004 before I knew about flickr. I missed buying it then but managed to pick up a used copy in April 2017 - I hope it's complete.
These BIG jigsaws remain aspirational for me - both in places to visit and jigsaws to assemble. They also stand as evidence that firms today are still producing classic landscape jigsaws, with natural colours - if you look hard enough for them.
Castorland includes 19x4000pc jigsaws in its range, and a handful of beautiful, naturally coloured landscapes of 2000pc and more.
Educa 3000pc James Bond's Island.
Educa 4000pc Red Rock Dusk Arizona
Castorland 4000pc Majesty of the Mountains.
