The development of jigsaw puzzle: low-cost civilian Entertainment

 

In 1789, the French Revolution kicked off the prelude to modern Europe. The bourgeoisie finally controlled the political stage, and its ideas became unprecedented open. Education and religion were no longer the themes of the puzzle. John Wallis, an imaginative Englishman, creatively added landscape elements to the puzzle. The new puzzle needs more attention and patience. The new puzzle ended the spearsbury puzzle era.

 

On the other hand, in the early 19th century, large-scale industrial production technology changed the high status of jigsaw puzzles, and jigsaw puzzles began to enter the lives of ordinary people.

 

At this time, the jigsaw puzzle is composed of thick and smooth fragments, which can be separated by a slight vibration. Until around 1840, German and French puzzle makers began to use interlocking biting machines to cut puzzles, and finally formed the appearance of modern puzzles. At the same time, they used softwood, plywood and cardboard to replace hardwood sheets, which once again greatly reduced the cost. Finally, the low-cost puzzle was accepted by consumers at all levels, and soon set off a frenzy of puzzle playing among children, adults and the elderly.
