Victory Wooden Puzzle: The Flapper (Life, 1922)
This beautiful wooden jigsaw features a vintage Life magazine cover from 1922, brought to life with 250 thick, chunky, irregular and whimsical shaped pieces. Crafted from high-quality 5mm Linden plywood, it's a perfect blend of illustrative art and entertainment.
We chose this beautiful image because it was created in 1922, the same year that Gerald Hayter declared 'Victory' as the brand name for his wooden puzzles - it's our signature puzzle and features many cool 'whimsies' that were popular or invented around that time.
This delightful puzzle features a unique art-deco cut pattern and comes in our beautiful, premium quality packaging - a very sturdy box with a magnetic closure. It will look fabulous on your bookshelf or coffee table!

The Victory Jigsaw Puzzles brand was first established in the early 1920s by G.J. Hayter & Co. in Bournemouth, England. The hand cut plywood jigsaws were a familiar sight in British homes from the 1920s onwards. Victory's top of the line 'Gold Box' series didn't included guide pictures which added to the puzzling challenge and were known to be a favorite with the Royal family.
Today, using sustainably sourced 5mm plywood and modern laser cutting techniques, our puzzles contain unique, beautiful cut patterns which include the whimsical shaped pieces that Victory was so famed for. Like the original, Victory's our wooden puzzles are heirloom quality and highly collectable.
Operating out of our premises less than 10 miles from the site of the original factory, we work closely with established and emerging artists and continue to bring you original, beautiful images to give you the most fantastic, puzzling experience.
