Description
Publisher's Description of America the Wonderland Jigsaw Puzzle (1000 piece)
America the Wonderland is an elaborate
historical pictorial map 1,000 piece jigsaw puzzle depicting the United
States in 1941. The creator, American illustrator Ernest Dudley Chase
(1878-1966), was well known for his meticulous attention to detail on
greeting cards and pictorial maps during the first half of the 20th
century. He created nearly 50 pictorial maps in his lifetime from his
studio in Winchester, Massachusetts. In his pursuit of perfection, he
viewed his work under a magnifying glass, used a tiny pen and a
stippling technique which combines tiny dots to form an image. This
colorful pictorial map is a superb example of the painstaking nature of
Chase’s work. America the Wonderland is Chase’s depiction of the lower
48 states, their man-made and natural landmarks and monuments, and all
that he considered to be “wonders” in America in 1941. The original
historical artwork has been very slightly altered to produce this
puzzle. All illustrations are original. Comes with a full-size poster.
