Build on your knowledge of the neighborhood and surrounding community with this specially commissioned Delorme map jigsaw puzzle. Starting with familiar areas, discover and explore new places around your house and hometown. To help get you started, the centrepiece is shaped like a house and is centered on your home! We have deliberately resisted the temptation to include a traditional guide print in the hope that it adds to the challenging fun and makes your jigsaw journey even more rewarding. Your puzzle is individually created from the Delorme North American Topographical map base, which is the most suitable and up to date mapping available to allow us to offer you the best image for your puzzle. Delorme’s latest ground-breaking dataset adds for the first time a subtle hill shading to the contours thus enhancing the mapping with a 3D relief effect. Combine this with over 30 years’ experience of market leading cartography and the result is a fantastic modern & accurate map base. We harness this imagery with a custom-built geolocation tool that allows us to place your chosen address in the centre of your jigsaw. Did you know the first ever jigsaw puzzles were the invention of an Englishman, John Spilsbury, during the late 18th century? Based in London and trained as an apprentice engraver & map maker at the court of King George III, Spilsbury went on to create map-based jigsaws – called ‘dissected maps’ – to help students learn geography. And so, the tradition lives on with your unique made-to-order home centered puzzle. Enjoy!.
