Shattered Hopes

Fine quality plywood puzzle with several Whimsies, or figural shapes and and much colour line-cutting. The print is of a colourful painting by the popular American artist Hy. Hintermeister. Another example of puzzle, also probably of American origin, which features this same painting can be found in the Unidentified Manufacturers album, also entitled Shattered Hopes
