Suddenly (well, over the last few months) jigsaws are cool! For many of us, however, they never lost their allure, that hard-to-resist attraction of ‘just finishing the corner bits’.

With this in mind we have found some challenging and yet extremely satisfying new puzzles. They come from a prestigious San Francisco poster company, which has delved into its archives to find vintage (but for puzzles, entirely novel) images, to pore over.

Each delightful jigsaw comes in a muslin drawstring bag with a miniature print of the poster as a guide, all in an attractive cardboard drum.
