We have put together several Liberty puzzles and given away several more as gifts. They are great. We first saw them put together and hanging in a store in Alaska. If you have not put one together I encourage you to do so. Interconnect with family and friends by doing one together. They are meant to be passed down to your grandkids. Thanks Liberty. We are totally loyal to you.
The wooden puzzles 80 years ago had every single piece cut by hand with a "jig" saw - hence the name. Each puzzle was unique and reflected the personality of the cutter who signed his work. The puzzles were expensive because of the many hours of specialist labor involved. Today we have powerful laser cutters available for just a few hundred dollars and just about anyone can make high quality yesteryear type wooden puzzles at very low cost. While Liberty makes nice quality puzzles their prices are quite steep reflecting a very inefficient process and abundant "pride of product". I am happy to see healthy competition in this segment and look forward to more offerings and more reasonable prices for collectors.
I am absolutely in love with Liberty Puzzles and even made my husband a jigsaw lover. Please start up soon again but of course stay safe as well. Love this short youtube
Sandra Vogel They are taking orders starting at 10 AM tomorrow morning.
Their website has so absolutely beautiful puzzles. At about $115., I think it’s a fair price for such quality images and craftsmanship, although still a bit out of reach for many people unfortunately.
I have a very large original “whimsy” puzzle, framed that I purchased in an antique store for $60. many years ago.
Being a 'victim to competitors' just means you're losing. Coming for you Liberty.

Boulder? Hellooo. There are 7 towns in America named Boulder. Couldn't we have been a little more precise?
