World’s Largest Jigsaw Puzzle
Posted in: Today's Chili
There are jigsaw puzzles, and then there are jigsaw puzzles. What you see here is touted to be the World’s Largest Jigsaw Puzzle, and it definitely does not come across as cheap, either, considering how you will need to fork out a rather hefty $299.95 for this puppy. To literally put things into perspective, the World’s Largest Jigsaw Puzzle measures more than 17 feet long and 6 feet wide, and has been recognized as so by the Guinness Book of World Records. Just how many pieces of manic puzzle solving do you need to go through before it is completed?
We are looking at 32,256 pieces, where the entire jigsaw puzzle will tip the scales at 42 lbs., and to make life a wee bit easier for you, it will be accompanied by its very own hand truck. Made by Ravensburger, the very same crafters of fine German puzzles since 1891, these jigsaw pieces are definitely hardy and of high quality, being made from 1/16″-thick cardboard with glare-free linen-structured paper and cut using hand-crafted tools. The result? Smooth, dust free pieces which fit together – perfectly. When completed, the puzzle shows a retrospective of world-renowned pop artist Keith Haring’s ebullient, graffiti-based art.
