Jigsaw puzzles

Caroline just guided me to a few past queries on the board pertaining to jigsaw puzzles (actually known as "dissected pictures, maps or puzzles"). This is right up my alley, because I make reproduction Georgian, Regency, and Victorian wooden "jigsaw" puzzles as a hobby. I do not want to "commercialize" this board, so if anyone is interested in learning about the history of "jigsaw" puzzles, log onto the following site, then click on "Articles"; click on the one with my name after it, and learn a bit about the history of these wonderful toys.
