Advertisement for jigsaw puzzles, illustrating one entitled The Blue Bird (a difficult puzzle, beautifully coloured). The manufacturers offer a special discount for puzzles used by wounded soldiers and sailors in hospitals and nursing homes, though the company name, Holtzapffel & Co, might have given rise to anti-German feeling during the First World War.
