Continuous Cut Jigsaws From the Continent Zeitvertreib 3
Kerstin's recent article in the BCD Magazine about Penelope Puzzles gave a diagram of three alternative cutting styles from the usual globular style: Romantic (whimsy cut); Theoric (continuous cut, like Zeivertreib) and Diabolic (colour-line cut).
I have only one example of Penelope Theoric cut jigsaw in my files, so I thought I'd combine it with uploading examples of other Zeitvertreib jigsaws.
These four puzzles are.
