Limited Edition 50
Gilbert and Sullivan's comic opera H.M.S. Pinafore, with its ingenious plot, clever patter songs, and rousing choruses has been cleverly recrafted in jigsaw form as a Stave Limited Edition. The mischievous Tricks and Teasers, and devious and delightful word games are enhanced by Stave artist Molly Delaney's sprightly artwork in a collaboration that will have you singing.
The charm and challenge of H.M.S. Pinafore lie in the variety of Tricks and Teasers it offers. It's also jam-packed with nifty puzzlements, 3-D elements, word games and lots of just plain puzzling.
Made-To-Order: This wooden jigsaw puzzle needs to be handcrafted by a skilled Stave artisan. Made to order puzzles may take 3-6 weeks to ship.
The tricks and games were just the right level of difficulty. In general, I find that the trickier the puzzle, the less likely I am to want to do it again. This is not the case with Pinafore; I'm sure we will be redoing the puzzle many times in years to come.
