Laying the puzzle

I always make the puzzles in a puzzle mat and then start laying the edges:

Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures in between - forgot this time. Too bad, but eventually I did the puzzle:

Recurring element by Dick Heins - C Loves D

A very striking small element is that on the wall in white letters it says 'C loves D'. I had no idea what this means. I asked about this in various forums and Dick Heins has given an explanation. He says that this is a promise he made to people, apparently to include this in the puzzle. 'C loves D' means 'Cindy loves Dick'. Cindy is the wife of Dick Heins.
You see that here:

The 'C loves M' is also in the puzzle 'The Cheese Market'

Other texts on the wall

You can still see various texts on the wall – it is all very difficult to read, but I was still able to figure them out.
These are the texts written on the wall here:

You will see the following texts:
1) Rock&Roll
2) A Brick House
3) Wheels of Thunder. That refers to the roller skates – they are actually 'wheels of thunder'
4) …. was here. This is the only text I couldn't read
5) ZZ Rob. This is a reference to the cartoonist Rob Derks.
7) Killroy was here. At least that's what this drawing shows. This item was also found on the puzzle 'Camp Chaos' – there you can read more about this Kilroy. Kilroy – That's this image:

7) Another Brick in the Wall. “Another Brick in the Wall” is a rock and roll song by Pink Floyd. It is divided into three parts. It appeared on their 1979 album The Wall. Part 1 is a song about the grief of a child (who would later become a rock star). This is the song:

8) A pair of scissors. Very nicely done by Dick, as if you could cut the wall in half there

Video of the regular recurring elements and fun items

I made a video about the regular recurring elements:

The Holdson Funny World (HFW) edition is a rare edition

This is a rare puzzle.

How long will it take you to complete this 1000 piece puzzle?

I made the puzzle 'Rollerdisco' in peace and quiet and it took me several days. Nicely made on a puzzle mat on the floor in the living room. I do take the time, but not very precisely, puzzling remains a hobby! But to give you an idea of ​​how long it took me to make this JvH puzzle of 1000 pieces:

• Explaining the pieces: 20 minutes
• Laying the edges = 25 minutes
• Laying the rest of the pieces = 4 hours and 10 minutes
• Which made me do this puzzle in total = 4 hours and 55 minutes. It used to take me almost always 8 hours, but I have a special tip to be able to puzzle a lot faster

About Jumbo puzzles

Jumbo (not to be confused with our supermarket Jumbo!) makes toys, games and puzzles. Jumbo, for example, has made the very well-known games such as “Human don't get annoyed” and “Stratego” and “PimPamPet”. Games that have been around for generations and are still widely played by both young and old. Jumbo has been making and developing toys since about 1900. In the early years of the company, only toys from other countries were imported to the Netherlands. However, since about 1930 it was decided to also make their own toys, at the time manufacturing wooden toys, which was very popular at the time. Almost all toys in those years were made of wood. An important spearhead was that the toys made by Jumbo had to be of very good quality; it had to be as strong as an Elephant. An elephant had to stand on it! The red elephant has been the hallmark of Jumbo's games and puzzles for years. The name Jumbo and the red elephant together form the logo from about 1935. The Jumbo elephant is drawn by Mr. Möhr. He worked at an advertising agency and regularly signed for Hausemann & Hötte. Mr Möhr was at one point commissioned to design a beautiful new elephant logo for the Hausemann & Hötte toys. The logo has changed a bit since then. For example, the eye has grown over the years and has dropped slightly more, resulting in a friendlier elephant.

In the past, the elephant was not only used in the color red, but in all kinds of colors such as blue, yellow, black, white and green. All those colors were cozy and playful. For example, one time there was a yellow elephant on the box and the other time a red one. It was usually looked at which color best matched the color of the box. It was not until the end of the 60s that the red elephant was definitively chosen. Red is a color that stands out and attracts attention.

From 1945 Jumbo also started to focus on games made of cardboard. Jumbo has therefore been a guarantee for strong quality for years! Jumbo is a unique Dutch company with a rich history, with its head office in Zaandam. About 130 employees work for Jumbo. With a turnover of €75 million, Jumbo is a medium-sized European player in toys. Jumbo has sales offices in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and the United Kingdom. They export to more than 25 countries around the world.

In 1980 Jumbo starts the production of Jan van Haasteren Puzzles.
