New July 2024!

This 156 piece wooden jigsaw puzzle is a fun, colorful, comical vintage cat illustration from early 20th century by famous cat artist Louis Wain (played by Benedict Cumberbatch in the 2021 movie dramatization about Wain's life, The Electrical Life of Louis Wain). 

This puzzle is from the Artifact Ecru line, which means it has a matte image for reduced glare. 

The puzzle is average hard for its piece count, with cat-themed whimsy pieces and an irregular edge.  The irregular edge is NOT shown in the box picture. 

This puzzle was the secret puzzle in the Puzzle Parley 2024 speedcontest, so we threw in an extra trick to challenge those world champions - if you need a hint to finish it, you can email us at puzzledabq@gmail.com.  Puzzle design by Marcelle Jay Iremedio.  

Like all Artifact puzzles, laser-cut from 1/4" thick wood. Made in USA.
