2-Pack 1000-Piece Puzzles, Succulents, Rocks & Minerals

These are surprisingly high quality puzzles with a very nice matte finish and great image quality. The subjects are fun — and real. One is pulp magazine covers from the ‘50’s, the other is fruit crate labels from the same era. I’ve included a few pics of the magazine covers, both overall and close-up. Most cover subjects that are off-limits today, either from stereotypes (the “stewardess” and the Captain) or bordering on exploitation. But they all existed, and were widely sold to teens and young adults as ”Romance Magazines”. How far we’ve come in such a relatively short time. These are especially good for multiple puzzlers, as you can each work on an area as a “mini puzzle”. The individual magazine cover art is distinctive enough in color and style to be able to find “your” piece from hundreds of other pieces relatively quickly. For example, there is lots of red or yelllow or blue in the covers, but each is slightly different, so a careful eye can find the same shade, which is probably unique to a particular magazine cover. Ditto the font colors and styles. The same is true for the fruit crate labels, although we’re in the middle of that one so no pics — but it’s great fun to see the artwork and creativity that went into these labels “back in the day”. I grew up surrounded by fruit orchards in Washington State, and likely ate fruit from some of these concerns 60 to 70 years ago. I may have even picked for a couple of them, as it was common in the ‘50’s for orchards to hire teens who were looking to make a few bucks. We would ride our bikes to the orchards, pick all day, eat too much fruit, get a few bucks, then ride home. They also used professional migrant pickers, but were kind (or smart) enough to also hire local kids, which was a boost to our little individual bottom lines — and the local “baseball trading card and bubble gum pack” economy. Only downside is there is no paper image to work from — only the small image on the back of the box. We solved that by scanning, enlarging (to 8-1/2 X 11) and printing multiple copies so we all have our own “crib sheet”, which makes the group puzzling much more fun. I would gladly pay more to have a foldable puzzle image included, as many (costlier) puzzle-makers do. But as far as image and product quality go, these are up with puzzles costing three times as much.

Los rompecabezas son muy lindos y buena calidad.

Very clear images. The overall pictures are on the bottom of the boxes. They are small pictures but the detail is very good. The pieces are a little thin and don’t click so I used a bit of card stock to move groups into place. The ink is a wee bit fragile but not too bad with moderate care. Hidden Village - This one, alone, was easily worth $9. It’s a reasonably hard puzzle but there’s a balanced variety of colors and textures so it stays interesting for the most part. I totally recommend this pretty puzzle. I will save it and do it again someday. Daffodils - The top half of the puzzle is tedious and there was a missing piece of walkway but Amazon was more than fair about that. It’s a pretty pretty picture but I wouldn’t do this puzzle twice.

Like many people, I've turned to jigsaw puzzles during the lockdown. I always loved puzzles and the home time has rekindled that love. So in other words, I do a lot of puzzles. When I saw this 2-pack I couldn't believe the price. Read the positive and negative reviews; Cons: No poster included (for those who like them) The FULL picture of the puzzle is NOT on the front of the box. The FULL picture is on the bottom section of the box. This is inconvenient, but since I tend to make my puzzles with the pieces in the bottom of the box and the lid for me to look at, I just reversed the process. So in other words, I kept my pieces in the TOP of the box and flipped the bottom (now empty) for reference. The box is small so when you are just beginning the puzzles, you find yourself digging through quite a pile of pieces rather than sifting if the box were larger. Puzzle piece sorting containers are handy. Pros: The price. For two quality puzzles this is a great deal. No dust. The pieces fit well and there's a good range of cuts and sizes. When I first handled the pieces they seemed smaller and lighter than most (I just finished a White Mountain puzzle). BUT they are very sturdy. No separation of top pic from other layers. These are not cheap cardboard Great picture quality. Glossy texture which I think helps protect the pieces. Small footprint for storage Result: very very pleased.

Always love getting my puzzles! These are really nice! Beautiful scenes, and image quality is perfect. Sturdy pieces.

I was disappointed in this 2 pack puzzle package. First of all because the collage format is very small it would have been helpful if the company would include a poster. As it was I had to use a magnifying glass to see the patterns on the pieces. I really enjoy the collage puzzles and I thought this one would be fun but it also was missing 2 pieces. I won’t buy from this company again.

Have only built the 1st puzzle, the one with the woods and cabin - thoroughly enjoyed. Great colors. Puzzle pieces are moderate/good quality, which for the price I was expecting much lower quality. The pieces fit together well, just could not always pick up groups of pieces. But all-in-all for the price this was an excellent puzzle. Enjoyable to put together, moderate difficulty and very pretty picture when it was done (looks nicer than the online picture or the box picture). There was no poster in the box, but I never use the poster anyway and am happy they saved the money on printing an expensive color poster.

I love putting together puzzles and the more pieces to the puzzle, the better. The pieces could be a little thicker but they do fit together well and are quite sturdy. The colors in the puzzle are vibrant. The size of the puzzle is perfect size (20 inches by 27 inches) and fits on a card table. The only thing I would like to come with the puzzle is a separate picture of the puzzle since there are times when I need to look at the picture to figure out where a piece may go. Otherwise, this puzzle is fun to put together. I like that it is not one picture but many different pictures put together which make the puzzle harder to do. I enjoy the challange.

These arrived safe & sound (not crushed like some other companies) was very pleased with them they made up well.

Produto de péssima qualidade, peças estão se desmanchando, não aguenta varias desmontagens e montagem

We live to puzzle, and this set is so much fun to put together! Would buy another set as they have different pictures!

Very happy with product

Buena calidad. Solo como consejo, sería bueno que trajera una foto completa del rompecabezas.
