Assembly

This Hennessy came with a poster of the map and a little extra. You can email in for a 'Memory Magnet" which is kinda cool - haven't seen any other companies doing that!

I did my usual sorting routine.

  1. Sorting to locate all  the outside border pieces, while....
  2. Placing the pieces into the 'general-color' piles. 
  3. Then I carried on with a second round of sorting (similar colors sorted by shades/patterns) while placing the pieces flat out on the poster boards. 

The border is pretty much all blue so going by shapes and shades of blue was the strategy used there. It was not difficult.

Comments

Then the order went like this;

  • Large chunks of solid colors first
  • Smaller chunks of colors 
  • Larger text
  • Smaller text
  • Solid large blue lines
  • Dotted lines
  • Thin lines
  • Solid blues and DONE!!!!

Here' some nice close up photos to show off the image better and the quality of the pieces. The cut was really great too!

Hennessy jigsaw puzzles are just as good quality as any of the other major brands.  Being a map with lots of blue might be testy however using my strategy I did not experience any frustrations - actually this puzzle assembled quicker than I thought it might. I highly recommend this puzzle.
