About this deal

This reality-TV-star-turned-billion-dollar-empire-owner recently announced that she took up puzzling when pregnant with her firstborn, Stormi. Jenner says that it is those very same pastimes she relied on during pregnancy that she turned to during quarantine to keep her entertained. Iconic actress Laura Dern once gifted Marilyn Monroe's jigsaw puzzle box to film critic Roger Ebert after his Sundance Tribute. Dern added the gift note: On 6 th February 2022, Her Majesty The Queen became the first British Monarch to celebrate a Platinum Jubilee, seventy years of service, having acceded to the throne on 6th February 1952 when she was just 25 years old. The large pieces and gorgeous imagery has been designed to be age-appropriate for adults, yet accessible to all.

Our goal was to create a puzzle that can bring people together during these difficult times. So we undertook thorough research and development when designing this collection, which included care home visits, liaising with Age UK Centres and teaming up with Zoe Wryko , Consultant Geriatrician and member of the expert team on Channel 4's award-winning TV show, Old People's Home for 4 Year Olds. I think I'd be the one to solve the mystery, because I'm obsessed with puzzles. Every Christmas my family gets a 2,000 piece jigsaw puzzle, and it really triggers me to see it incomplete. So once it's started, I have to just finish it, or else I get angry. It's a weird OCD thing for me. We do it every year, and it drives us crazy so we're always like, never again – this is the last year. Then someone, usually me, will buy one." All of us, have been fortunate enough to have been alive during the reign of our dear departed Queen Elizabeth II. What a remarkable and selfless monarch she has been. Since becoming our Queen at the young age of 25, due to the premature passing of her father King George VI, she has devoted over 70 years of her life to serving her people. Stewart then showed off another example of his work and said, "Right here is one I just finished and I've got to be so careful because it's loose. This is a Frank Stella painting done as a jigsaw puzzle. This took weeks." After leaving Bradford Art College in 1979 with a Diploma in Art and Design, Trevor began his career as an art director at a London advertising agency. He returned to his native West Yorkshire a few years later and worked for several design studios and advertising agencies before going freelance in 1986. Commercial illustration work rekindled his love of painting and he was encouraged by finding a market for his work among the publishers of greeting cards and jigsaw puzzles, and art prints of his paintings are now sold worldwide. Trevor's paintings reflect his enthusiasm for steam and vintage vehicles and his fascination with recreating the past in pictures appears frequently in Gibsons nostalgic puzzle range.

You may be surprised to read this (or not if you've stayed up to date with our blogposts), but Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II is well known to be an avid puzzler. The Queen is famous for her preference to puzzles without a guide picture, as she believes this makes the puzzle too easy. The Queen is also a member of the British Jigsaw Puzzle Library, and is believed to frequently borrow them for those winter stays at Sandringham.The puzzle images were chosen specifically to evoke fond memories from years gone by to spark conversations with loved ones and reminisce around topics that may be long forgotten. ' The Queen’s Speech’ is a 40 piece puzzle that’s been painted by the talent ed Trevor Mitchell , which portrays a family gathering around the television to tune into Her Majesty’s speech… although it seems that some family members are more intere sted in their brand-new train set! Developed with Dr. Zoe Wryko, Consultant Geriatrician and member of the expert team on Channel 4's award winning TV show, Old People's Home for 4 Year Olds.
