The Royal Family
From a Portrait by Marcus Adams

The Victory Wooden Jigsaw shows the Royal Family maybe by the End of 1930ies. King George VI. was crowned in 1937 while his daughters were small children. The young Lady on the right side is 90 years old now and reigned for more than 63 years! As time passes by....

 I bought this wonderful vintage jigsaw puzzle in April 2012 and it arrived just 2 days before my 'royal exhibition' started. By now I realized that I never assembled it. Oh my! ;-)
