Here is a large puzzle -- the largest in our collection -- in a box about 12" x 10½". Seven blocks across and six high. Each of the six scenes is a different La Fontaine fable, appropriate labeled. The other five pictures survive! It is not easy to guess when this puzzle was made. Jeujura has apparently been around for a long time! GA; TH; MM; OF; FC; and "The Heron."
