Finished 16th May 2014

 307 Pieces

"The Royal Family"
A vintage, handcut CHAD VALLEY Jigsaw Puzzle
age: approx. 1933-1935 (= 79 years)
The king died January 1936 

I still don't know who are the newly-weds, but it's interesting to see, that the bridal pair is not in the center of the royal group picture, but the king and queen.

 King George V. with Queen Mary

 the future King George VI. and Queen Elizabeth

 Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret

the Box is in a very good condition - due to the age...
 ...and wears inscriptions of  previous owners of 1946 and 1980. I added mine of 2014...
This is living history!
