When I found this puzzle at the thrift store, I knew instantly that it was a special puzz. It’s manufactured by the Great American Puzzle Factory in 1993, they called it a Puzzle within a Puzzle.
Not only does this puzzle have gorgeous illustrations by an artist named Nancie West Swanberg, but there are hidden faces within the puzzle image. 19 mermaids and 1 king Neptune.
I’m happy to say that I was able to find all the mermaids, some of them were quite visible and other were pretty sneaky, tucked away in kelp or corals. This was such a cleverly made puzzle, the piece cut even resembled ocean currents with the random cut, it was, honestly, a perfect puzzle!
Oh, also, this was a complete thrift store find! I was so happy when I was down to the last piece and placed it in irks place.
Ok, just one more photo!

Es un rompecabezas, maravilloso, yo diría que es estupendo.. me costó un poco resolver los ballenatos, las algas superiores y las colinas de arena … Es fantástico..! Increíble y asombroso buscar el Reyno de las siete diosas de neptuno. O quizá sean más…
