British Jigsaw Library Sara White 1990s 223pc Six Good Things Birds Advert Paired With Treloar 4
These two small jigsaws were cut by Sara White for the British Jigsaw Library.
Sara White British Library no6219 'SW4':
1 233pc Six Good Things 12x8in (Birds grocery items) semi-interlocking with line-cutting.
2 284pc Treloar, In the Shadow of St Pauls (Carpets, 28-70 Ludgate Hill) 12.5x9.5in, semi-interlocking with line-cutting.
The Birds items were:
Bird's Custard - Purity itself; "the only Custard that tastes as good as it looks."
Bird's Blanc Mange - Smooth as a junket. A fascinating dish full of flavor, and so creamy
Bird's Crystal Jelly Powder - Dissolves instantly, making jelly "in a jiffy" with the flavor of fresh fruit.
Bird's "Spongie" - So easy. A child can make a delicious Swiss Roll. No sugar required.
Bird's "Puddena" - The new quick way of making puddings: a small packet makes a large pudding, dainty, delicious and disgestible. No sugar needed!
Bird's Egg Substitute - Imparts the richness flavor and appearance of new-laid eggs to cakes, buns and puddings.
NB The use of the spelling 'flavor' indicates this is an American advert.
The Treloar carpet advert, as a full page colour image, appeared in the 1919 Pears Annual.
The pair of jigsaws were retired and sold by David S in April 2022.
"A fine quality and highly imaginative pair of plywood jigsaw puzzles by the quite brilliant British cutter Sara White, for the jigsaw puzzle library. The puzzles both feature colourful early promotional poster artwork. They are entitled "Six Good Things" and "Treloar" and are of c1990s manufacture.
"Six Good Things" is a 223-piece plywood jigsaw puzzle measuring 8" x 12", whilst "Treloar" has 284 pieces, measuring 9 1/2 x 12 1/2". Both are expertly cut in the predominantly interlocking style and featuring fine colour line-cutting throughout. This can best be seen by a look at the reverse side of each board to show how widely the practice has been used. The puzzles are both complete and in excellent, as is their original sturdy library box."
