Chigley Jigsaws
Trumptonalia.
Only 3 Chigley jigsaws were ever produced.And they all came in this one set.
1970 :- Set of 3 by Arrow Games. Arrows set reference - No. 2269.
Large box,yellow edge -approx. 11" x 9" ( 28cm x 23cm )
Comprises 20 large card pieces.
No descriptive titles,just "1 of 3" ... "2 of 3" etc,as well as the above reference number that appears on all of them.
And I think I'm on pretty safe ground assuming none of them exactly flew off the shelves.
As this is indeed all that was ever produced.
With Chigley generally failing to have anything like the same viewer impact as the other 2 series.
Which meant that far less merchandise was produced.And none of it sold well enough to encourage any more.
Of the three,the orchard scene seems to be the hardest to find.
Although that's a tough call considering none of them crop up that often.
And if you're curious as to why Chigley struggled,it's discussed on the main trumpton site ( although not necessarily resolved ! ) - direct page link here
