The Fire Station - Jan Van Haasteren by Caeco 550 pieces

-

Brand:  Caeco

Title:  The Fire Station

Artist:  Jan Van Haasteren

Pieces: 550

Size:  18" x 24"

Poster:  No

What I liked:  A fun image with a lot of interesting details to look at.

What I didn't like:  Searching through a lot of interesting details to figure out which fireman the piece I was holding belonged to.  I found this puzzle more difficult than the Soccer puzzle I recently completed.

Before I assembled this one I went and bought a piece of foam core which is 32 x 40 inches.  I can place it easily on top of the coffee table I was using, and it gives me a lot more room.
