DSC01876 Antique Jigsaw Trades Illustrated Map Dissector adj

An antique jigsaw cut from a printed Trades poster by Brogden (no entries in either of the books by Linda Hannas or Tom Tyler that I own). It is of unique historical interest because it is the only depiction of a 'Map Dissector' known to BCD members (in the lower right corner). The jigsaw has a missing piece which has been replaced by enthusiast, mender and ebay seller stgenix.

 

I first saw this jigsaw at the last (2019) House Party. I wish I'd uncovered and photographed the box, but I was rather afraid to touch it. Unfortunately I can't tell you anything about jigsaws of this vintage because they seldom come up on ebay and I don't collect them.
