First Footsteps

Fine quality solid wood puzzle featuring a charming painting thought to be by the British artist Henry John Dobson (1858-1928). As with other examples from this uncommon brand, the cutting technique is of push-fit pieces within a fully interlocking border and the puzzle fits inside the box when it is assembled.
Many thanks to Trish Tunnicliffe for taking the time to send details and pictures of another puzzle from this little-known range.
