Laying this puzzle

I made this puzzle on a Jumbo puzzle mat for 3000 piecesI like it very much, because that's where all the puzzle pieces fit. As you can see I already have the 126 edge pieces sorted:

Then I always start with the edge, and I have to say, I don't count those edge pieces (126 pieces), so it's always exciting whether I've sorted correctly. Often I miss 1, but not this time:

I started with the bright colors, although this puzzle does have a lot of happy colors, but still with the bright colors and large surfaces. This is the result after 1,5 hours of puzzling:

After more than 4 hours of puzzling I have made quite a splash with the blue sky (finished!). And partly with the cars:

And finally I finished the puzzle – it was a lot of fun!

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 'Holiday Jitters' in peace and took several days to complete it. Beautifully made on a puzzle mat on the floor in the living room. I do take the time, but not very precisely, it remains a hobby that puzzles! But to give you an idea of ​​how long it took me to complete this 1000 piece JvH puzzle:

• Explaining the pieces: 20 minutes
• Laying the edges = 20 minutes
• Laying the rest of the pieces = 6 hours
• So it took me a total of 6 hours and 40 minutes to complete this puzzle. That is faster than it takes me on average over a JvH jigsaw puzzle, namely about 8 hours. However: forgot to keep track of the time a few times, so it became a bit of an estimate. But that shouldn't spoil the fun

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.
