Vera, Reflets dans le port
750 pieces (3 missing). Always sad to have a puzzle with missing pieces, though it's a hazard when you buy a vintage puzzle. This style is nearly push-fit, with minimal interlocks but a lot of curves to fit one piece partially inside another. I didn't enjoy it as much as full interlock, but it definitely was different. 3/5

Mr. Gogo, travel documents
Some color line cutting here, which I think is a first! Very pleasant hand feel, as usual. The muted colors increased the challenge. 5/5

BCB puzzles, Fishbowl shoe
This is why I want everyone to try wooden puzzles--the tactile experience just adds so much more. And hand-cut puzzles can fit amazingly.
