Spotters at Doncaster – 100XXL Pieces by Gibsons The Norseman at Doncaster; the London Kings Cross to Newcastle express, connects with shipping services to Norway. This 1000 piece puzzle, painted by the talented David Noble, takes us back to 1961 when the Gresley A4 No. 60025 ‘Falcon’ stops to replenish its tender alongside V2 2-6-2 No. 60952. This 100XXL piece puzzle has been painted by the talented artist David Noble. The pieces in our 100XXL puzzles are five times larger than those found in our 500 and 1000 piece puzzles. This means they are perfect for those who find larger piece counts too tricky, or those who are suffering with sight or handling difficulties. David Noble Leaving school in 1960, David worked at a local colliery for 12 years as an electrician, all the time painting and sketching his experiences in the dangerous working environment of the coal mine. In 1972, he won a scholarship to Ruskin College, Oxford and after completing his studies at Oxford and Hull Universities in 1978, he took up teaching at Rotherham College. His love of steam engines and railways in general were directly inspired by his childhood experiences at Mexborough loco shed, where his father worked as a driver right up until the shed’s closure in 1965. Now retired, he devotes more time to painting and drawing, whilst keeping busy fulfilling many commissions. We work with talented artists from around the world and for every puzzle sold, a percentage of that sale goes directly to the artist. As with all Gibsons jigsaws, they use 100% recycled puzzle board, FSC paper and commission the best artists from all around the world. The beautifully illustrated pieces are designed to fit perfectly together, in fact, they use the thickest puzzle board on the market. Gibson’s have made some positive changes to their processes, so you can be sure you’re getting the same great puzzles and know they are kinder to the environment. Not only does the box have a fresh new look, but they have used recyclable clear labels to secure the lid instead of shrink wrap, reducing plastic waste. They use vegetable-based inks too. The gloss coating on the box gives extra protection and the puzzle pieces are stored in a plastic bag that can be recycled by most councils. Because the box is slightly smaller than previous designs, less room is needed to transport the puzzles, which reduces the carbon footprint and means you can store your puzzles more easily. There is also an artwork poster inside for you to reference whilst you piece together your lovely jigsaw puzzle. With over 250 Gibsons jigsaws available here, at The Yorkshire Jigsaw Store, there is plenty to choose from. From the large piece puzzles to the most popular 1000 piece puzzles there is a jigsaw for everyone. The gift box range of 500 piece puzzles offers the perfect present. Gibsons have created ‘The Piecing Together’ puzzle collection. This range of puzzles has been specifically created for those living with memory issues, limited fine motor skills or visual impairment allowing them to enjoy the wonderful pastime either alone or with loved ones.
