Southampton Docks - enclosed leaflet
G J Hayter & Co Ltd
"Victory" No. L.D.18
plywood
about 300 pieces, used and with one missing piece
17½x13in
2023 piece count: 136,054
puzzle no: 197
Another trip to Malvern Flea Fair, the last of 2023.
Whenever we visit, we make for one of the sheds where there's usually a guy with assorted items spread out on a tarpaulin, divided into heaps priced at £1, £2, etc. I think they're the 'dog-ends' of house clearances, and there's usually a selection of sad-looking jigsaw puzzles. I've bought quite a few of these with varying degrees of success - some are complete, some have a piece or two missing, but they always provide a few hours' entertainment for very little outlay.
I bought two on Sunday, one at £1 (details to follow), and this approx. 90 yr old "Victory" of Southampton Docks for £2. Included is a leaflet with lots of information, but sadly there's a puzzle piece missing.
So yet again a couple of hours' pleasure, despite that missing piece.
