City - Rochester NY - Downtown Rochester 1904 Jigsaw Puzzle
Colourized photo from 1904
Original Title: State Street, Rochester, N.Y
Photographer: Detroit Publishing
Location: 1 State St, Rochester, NY
We are in Rochester, NY on State Street in 1904 at 11am. My guess is that people are out and about looking for lunch, or maybe its the weekend and everyone is shopping. What I find interesting about this scene are all the bicycles, and bike racks, there is one on almost every street corner. That's not often seen, usual a bike is balanced on the curb.
On the left is the Powers building, it was originally built in 1869. It has a triple mansard roof and an observation tower which were added after construction between 1873 and 1888. For the only reason so they can remain the tallest building in Rochester. It was made into an historic landmark in 1973, and still sits there today.
Further down the block is the Ellwanger & Barry office building, also still there now, minus that awning. In fact many of the buildings on the left side are still there.
Off in the distance is a train bridge, it may still be the one that is there today, or it sure looks the same. And on the right was the Exchange, and I believe the one behind it was the library. It has a set of cool looking gargoyles on the roof.

I got this image in 110 pieces as I cannot commit to large puzzles. This one took me about an hour and was fairly easy. Perhaps 252 pieces would have better suited me for a little more complexity. This is not my favourite sugar skull as I prefer more girly colours like hot pink, reds and purples but I enjoyed doing this one. There is a lot of detail in the image and it was interesting to do. I don't think I will buy the larger puzzle count just because there are other sugar skull images that I much prefer.
Again very good quality puzzle and durable storage box that fits very well on small bookcase. The image was well positioned on this one so who ever printed this one got it pretty bang on.

We are pleased with the jigsaw itself. However we are disappointed the box is far bigger than the jigsaw and not the kind of storage box we expected i.e. Ravensburger standard; rather it's a postage box and not very sturdy at that. Given it cost £18 + pp we did expect more. The image quality is good.
The pieces are rather thin and flimsy.

Jigsaw puzzle is of excellent quality, finish. Only thing I was not too happy about was the actual image printed on the outside of the accompanying presentation box. It was printed approximately A6 in size and was half the actual size of the presentation box. Making it difficult for me to see the actual jigsaw puzzle design when trying to put together the actual jigsaw puzzle :(.
