Midday Siesta 1000-Piece Puzzle
Designed by Simon Combes, this Puzzle marks the revival of the cherished Pastime Puzzle brand, featuring the return of unique puzzle piece shapes called Whimsies. What Are Jigsaw Whimsy Pieces? "Whimsies" add a whole new level to this popular indoor pastime and can make a puzzle a lot more fun. Whimsies are puzzle pieces cut into specific recognizable shapes, like flowers or animals. They got their name because they were originally cut according to the whims of the puzzle craftsman. In 1940 Simon Combes was born in "Wilderness Cottage", in Shaftesbury, England, and from that day in June, the Wilderness always attracted him. His first adventures began early when in 1946 when his parents moved onto farming Kenya's Great Rift Valley, a magical place for a young boy. Best known for his stunning images of wildlife in the African bush, he achieved worldwide success and acclaim through many prestigious awards. His paintings hang in private and museum collections around the globe.
