GWR Promotional Jigsaw Puzzles
This 76 page A5 size full colour booklet was first produced and published in May 2024 to mark the 100th anniversary of the Great Western Railway selling its first promotional jigsaw puzzle. The full range and backround of these puzzles spanning 1924 to 1939 is covered in the relevant pages of this website, but the booklet gathers all the information together and provides the opportunity to further expand upon certain aspects and detail. It is certain to become regarded as an invaluable reference work on a subject that has been rarely documented and researched so thoroughly.
