Summary
A jigsaw puzzle featuring an image of Beatrix Potter characters, various animals (mainly rabbits) in shop run by a cat and a dog. The puzzle consists of two wooden boards, rectangular with rounded corners, covered with melamine and therefore resembling chopping boards stuck together. Both boards are colour-printed with the same image. The lower board is intact, but the upper one has had the image cut into eighteen pieces, leaving a narrow border, thereby creating a puzzle whose pieces can be removed and reassembled, using the lower image as a guide. There are a few dirty marks on the lower board. Total number of items is 18.
